pointed sense

  DB: what is the attraction of hiding images within images for you?

NB: one of the things that inspired me a lot in this respect was david adjaye’s narrow house; 
a garage space of two buildings that he converted into a four-floor house, it really struck me, 
thinking of how much unused space we have around us… I started to think how to bring that 
kind of space to life, all those ‘dead spaces’, negative spaces that can describe something 
or tell a story.

 one of my images, ‘pointed sense’ created while I was at highgate wood, meeting 

with two dogs sniffing each other, a black male labrador tuck his nose behind a 
white female labrador, her tail was up, and i captured the moment with my pen, 
than I produced it as a print, cut out, sculpture etc.

 so this is an example for the way I see and create my images, it can be a one moment 

or as a commissioned subject that I’ll build a story with a few elements and sometimes 
using a second reading that works well with the idea.
