“Inspired by my photos of waves taken while swimming, I would float and take a photo of my legs bobbing in the waves or my shadow cast upon the surface. These were an aside at first but soon entered my work, and placing my self in the seascape transformed studies of the waves into experiential selfies. The satisfying distortion of the figure and colours align with my weekly transformational and perilous encounter with the North Sea.”
