I’m obsessed with those magical moments like when sunlight shifts through the trees, creating dancing shadows.
The Japanese word for this is komorebi (木漏れ日).
A dappled light, flickering water patterns and the awe of these unrepeatable moments is what fuels my work here.
CYANOTILES
I explore these fleeting scenes by experimenting with alternative photography processes and materials.
The 14-step process I’ve innovated fuses analog imagery with fired clay.
My creations are modular, tactile and permanent pieces - designed for collectors and spaces that value this unique intersection of light, chemistry and memory.
Commissions open for site-specific installations.
Crafted by hand, cured by light.
All CYANOTILE pieces are custom made original works. The process is completely hands on and involves several variable stages - meaning every piece has its own beautiful imperfections.
Most designs are available in two sizes. Commissions also available.
BLENDED
Analog film photography that challenges concepts of time and space. These impossible moments feature organic blends created entirely in-camera.
