Artist's statement:
"The objects and traces that are left behind by people each day fascinate me, the things that are overlooked and never given a second glance.
In my work I seek to find the beauty within objects that are generally overlooked and yet have acquired a personality of sorts through their association with people.
The images are at a glance beautiful and yet hold an element of distaste when you come to realise what they really are.
These particular photographs, capturing people's left over food, were taken in Kilau Coffee Co. in Aberdeen and the final images were transferred onto ceramic plates."
