We’re In New York. My husband Stephen Moon had been training to run his first marathon after recovering from two serious, life-threatening cycling injuries, most recently in April 2024. At the age of 68 he is in a 0.01 percentile of men in his age group who run a marathon. We had no idea whether … Read more
I’ve created a new haiku composed of photographs taken between 2009 and the present day, following on from my first experimental visual haiku in October 2024. These photographs were all shot in London and include texts from different sources that I’ve come across in day to day experiences ranging from graffiti, signage, pilates resistance bands … Read more
Here are some shots from the London Million Women Rise March, 2025. This is an event for women committed to ending all forms of male violence. The march is also a space where women can express themselves safely in solidarity with others; chanting, drumming and through signage. It’s been a couple of years since I … Read more

These holidays are sometimes represented by symbols, such as apple and honey for the new year, or a citrus fruit … Read more

On March 4, 2023 I attended a march led and organised by black women of the coalition Million Women Rise, a collective working towards ending male violence against women and girls. We gathered by the side entrance of Selfridges in … Read more
On a recent visit to Tel Aviv whilst walking through the Carmel Market area one evening I came across a sign at a construction site: The Hebrew text states it is compulsory to wear protective glasses. Seeing this well-worn sign with its additional shiny googly eyes was a decisive moment and I felt it was … Read more
This is a collection of photographs taken between May 2019 and July 2022 that reference Boris Johnson either directly or by implication. Encompassing handwritten graffiti, stickers, signage and satirical billboards, I see the photos as visual commentary on Londoners’ opinions; revealing anger and a depth of disdain as well as providing a critique of the … Read more
Today I was walking down Highgate Road when a woman’s top caught my eye; it was a white shirt decorated with female nudes, reminiscent of the work of Matisse’s Blue Nude figures. I decided to catch up with her and ask if I could photograph the shirt: I was curious as to whether she had … Read more
