Taxonomy is a series of photo-constructs that takes urban artefacts and detaches them from their context through a digital kaleidoscopic process.  This highlights and distinguishes their individual qualities and enables each artefact to be classified as a typology, much like the science of finding, describing, classifying and naming organisms.

The work largely deals with buildings under construction.  The photo-constructs seek to capture this period when the buildings enjoy a short life that is often as equally elaborate and beautiful as the final architecture.  The work celebrates the vibrant temporary apparatus of construction work; scaffolding, cranes, lifts and screening and sets these against the robust and permanent concrete or steel superstructures of the emerging building.  Through the mechanism of the photo-construct entirely new spaces and forms are created.
