I have long enjoyed how with digital media can become self referencing, the ‘Some Things Never Change’ series makes reference to this in the arrangement of multiple digital images to form one image.

Between 2005 and 2009 I took numerous photographs of the demolition of a vast portion of Ipswich docks (now known as the Waterfront) Following on from making these images available online and then receiving some publicity of this archive in the local press, I have recently returned to look at these images with fresh eyes.…
