about
Cartographer, filmmaker, writer. The practice makes complex, site-specific work — precise, considered, designed for legacy.
The three share a method. Each begins with a survey — of an estate, a street, a route across the Highlands — and makes something from what it finds: a map, a film, an essay.
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. Oxford Street (2026) surveys the behaviour of the road itself in the summer before traffic was removed from part of it. The Land Does Not Agree, to be shot in spring 2027, traces the 1747 military survey of the Scottish Highlands by William Roy, whose later work led to the Ordnance Survey, across five days and 250km by bicycle. No narration. No commentary. The places speak for themselves.
The writing is the same attention in prose: an essay on paper navigation, landscape, and what GPS helps us ignore.
