Say It... "I'm Angry And I'm Not Going To Take It Any More!"

As I get called back to the motherland to show some new work I think of how much things progressed since I left. I also feel grateful as I still refer to the motherland as being the first place I was inspired and realised what was out there past the Ocean and rolling hills (it has taken me a while to realise how important). No matter what I say Ireland has played the biggest part in my adventure and I touch on the nostalgic moments far too often to let it go unnoticed and unregarded. Good work or not, I want to show her what I have learned and how I have grown into something even I couldn't mold by my self. The natural development of a grown mans aesthetic and point of view that has changed allot over the 6 (ish) years baffles me again and again.

If only my spelling had improved, thank goodness for spell check.




Stills form "Anger", an instillation shot last year. Filmed at 1000fps - 2000fps in Hackney innit!!!

Fly On The Wall.

You got to hand it to bands that push it in their videos. Iv been doing allot of research for a new video iv been asked to direct and I keep coming back to kids running around fighting boredom. Taking photos is great to seep into the lives of others in an inconspicuous way, one man one camera, but when it comes to film and crew, how do you make something believable? How can you be a fly on the wall when there are 20 flies in the room? Ill figure this one out.



 Excuse the rubbish quality...

Justice Stress

Ok, I'm pretty sure this is how I saw my self as a kid. I was tough, didn't care and spat allot.  In reality these young fellows would have me and my friends for dinner though we might have put up a fight for a few seconds. I'm all for releasing built up tension but common, did they have to smash a perfectly good bongo?
