Professional interests

My critical practice extends across a variety of creative media, including archival research, writing on photography, producing visual imagery and curating exhibitions.

Between 2003-8 I acted as curator of the Royal Photographic Society Collection at the National Media Museum. Exhibitions include 'Faking It: Between Art Photography and Advertising (2004) and 'A Tale of Two Cities: London and New York (2006).

I have taught in HE since 1997.
