Piece description from the artist
Gazing up at the ornate ceiling of Leadenhall Market, I am immediately transported to a realm where Victorian elegance meets the bustling heart of London. The intricate ironwork and stained glass bathe the scene in a kaleidoscope of warm colours, creating a canopy of timeless beauty that whispers tales of a bygone era in every delicate detail. I hope the viewer can also feel the history and the vibrancy of this longstanding place for eating, drinking and living. To me, this is one of the most beautiful places in the City of London.

With deep roots in his community and heritage, his work seeks to represent the rich multicultural storytelling that inspired him in his youth and continues to do so now well into his career. Historical documentary photography and varying art and social movements as well as commercial interpretation of beauty have influenced his work into a contemporary style that could be called its own. Originally from Bermuda and partly raised in the United States, his international approach to storytelling, from commissioned picture essays to independent work on his website, is defined by the aesthetics of nature, design and human connections.
