"Photography for me has always been an expedition into the unknown. The many paths that lie ahead can unlock an immense variety of possibilities and embark one on an intriguing visual exploration. These paths invite me to explore my environment and then question what I encounter. The Hawaiian phrase; ná ná i ke kumu (look to the source), has always been my guide."
As a photographer, with a background in music and sculpture, he is able to relay a distinctive and individual interpretation on seeing through the camera. The use of space, light and time plays a vital part in his images.
