"I was always free to walk away but you held me with love"
Here is where hope begins. I grew stronger in mind, body and spirit. I was going on photowalks and shooting with purpose. I had more energy than I had had since my thirties! And I was filled with hope. Something I hadn’t felt for a long time.

All the images in this collection are square cropped with a different grunge frame that adds to the tight restrictions I imposed on the series. This reflects the moods I experienced making the series.
Three Roads is a journey into my mind as it was unraveling and on the road to recovery. Each one comes with a small part of my story. 30 1/1 editions.
Before Covid and lockdowns, I had a mental health crisis that caused a self-imposed isolation. Anxiety and depression meant that I didn't feel able to be far from my home. I had to force myself to walk around the block with my camera and take pictures. I restricted myself to shooting within a three road radius of my home.
At first, I was just taking pictures of anything but I started noticing details on the streets that struck me as odd or even made me smile. By focusing on these small "insignificant" things, I was able to figure out what was going on in my head. I was unconsciously photographing locks, gates, bars, chains, fences and discarded things. This is how I felt inside.
These photographs set me free.
