In collaboration with Strange Field and funded by the William Grant Foundation and Heritage Lottery Fund – This multimedia exhibition told the powerful and deeply personal stories of Dalmarnock and its residents a decade after the Commonwealth Games transformed their community.
The project didn’t just capture how the area has evolved; it sparked conversations about legacy, resilience, and urban development. Beyond the Games also featured as a striking photo essay in the Herald Magazine, bringing these narratives to a wider audience.
Commissioned by O’DonnellBrown Architects, this short corporate film explored the ambitious plans to transform the derelict Govan Graving Docks into a thriving community hub. The film documented the intricate journey of reimagining this iconic site for the people of Govan and Glasgow.
Developed in close collaboration with the local community, Rising Tides reflected a shared vision for the future of the docks. A special highlight of the project was the premiere event—an outdoor screening held on-site, where the story came alive in a setting brimming with history and potential.
In collaboration with Alison Irvine and Mitch Miller, this limited-edition book—designed by Graphical House – Brand Design + Art Direction —examined the iconic but controversial Cumbernauld Town Centre as it awaits its imminent demolition.
Through the eyes of residents past and present, the 160-page book weaves together a year long residency – funded by Creative Scotland – of photography, essays, illustrations, and even a full-sized fold-out dialectogram drawing of the Town Centre.
The project is both a tribute and a document of a piece of Scotland’s architectural and cultural history. A photo essay based on the project was also featured in the Herald Magazine. The final remaining copies of the book can be purchased here >
Glasgow’s Necropolis is often celebrated as the city’s grand “City of the Dead,” home to over 50,000 burials and the impressive memorials of Glasgow’s wealthiest residents. Yet, less widely known is the presence of 21,000 common or unmarked graves—final resting places for those whose families or friends couldn’t afford the price of a headstone.
In September 2024, a deeply moving event took place as 230 participants came together to plant thousands of bulbs in Eta Compartment, an unassuming triangular plot of grass that contains 8,000 common burials. Over time, these flowers will grow into a living memorial for those buried in the Necropolis’s unmarked graves. Commissioned by Angus Farquhar
December saw me photographing for the new Parkhead Hub, a health and social facility set to open in Glasgow’s East End in January 2025. The display photographs will adorn the walls of this transformative space, creating a visual narrative of the community it serves. Commission by Jackie Shearer
A significant portion of this year was dedicated to my ongoing documentary, The Partisan Necropolis. This film tells the story of the Partisan Memorial Cemetery in Bosnia, an architectural marvel and national monument that commemorates the young fighters who resisted fascism during World War II.
Despite its historical and cultural significance, the cemetery has faced relentless neglect, vandalism, and destruction. In June 2022, most of its 700 headstones—each a “stone flower” bearing the names of fallen fighters—were smashed to pieces in a single night. Today, the site is one of Europe’s most at-risk heritage landmarks, its haunting decay a sobering reminder of the fragile legacy of anti-fascist resistance.
In 2024, I pitched the film at the Sarajevo Film Festival, secured funding for the final stages of production, and worked tirelessly on shaping a rough cut. The project was initially funded by Pulitzer Center and in collaboration with Post-Conflict Research Center (PCRC)
