Work captured during attending Ilam Fine Arts school and documents both the institutional environment at the time and my personal life unfolding alongside it.
Art School is a photographic record of a formative period spent studying Fine Arts in Christchurch between 2018 and 2019.
Made alongside my wider body of work, the images move between social spaces, personal moments, and the environment of the art school itself.
This was a period marked by significant mental health challenges yet intense creative output. The photographs operate as fragments of that time — documenting a place, a state of mind, and the people who briefly shared it.
