about
Cartographer, filmmaker, writer. The practice makes complex, site-specific work — precise, considered, designed for legacy.
The cartography work begins with the data that already exists — surveys, records, historical maps — and turns it into something a visitor can hold, a wall can carry, or a website can show. The result is accurate without being technical, detailed without being dense. Each commission is made from scratch for its site.
The film work is documentary, forensic in its approach. The first film traces William Roy's 1747 military survey of the Scottish Highlands — the founding act of the Ordnance Survey — across five days and 250km by bicycle. No narration. No commentary. The landscape speaks for itself.
The writing connects both. An essay on paper navigation, landscape, and what GPS helps us ignore.
