As a parting remark by a college principle, I was told that he would look forward to the day that he saw my work hanging in MoMA. As such, I wasn’t quite sure how to take the remark. Was it final and long overdue gatekeeper validation of my clear artistic genius, or a form of mild mocking, better placed in a high school playground of false hope? I'll leave it up for you to decide. If you do actually see any of this stuff at MoMA in the future, my apologies in advance.

National Treasure: The Colosseum
The idea for the national treasure series came from the white trash and Melbourne cup series. I wanted to go to a bunch of national monuments in the USA and capture bins overflowing with rubbish if for no other reason than I liked the juxtaposition. I never got around to doing that but going to the Colosseum and seeing all the trash lying around was quite apparent so I found my way in and somewhat resurrected the idea.
Thinking about it after the fact really should have done a hero image a full wide shot rather than just all these detail shots to round out the series.
