Covers is a project that was born in 2014 documenting album covers rephotographed in their original locations around the world. The collection of images presents to the viewer windows into the past, documenting the passing of time and augmenting the significance of geographical areas of the city and their relation to music.
Derived from cockney slang meaning street, the Field of Wheat is a collection of street photography depicting life in the city as it presented itself in all its gritty complexity.
