Education Work
I have been working in photography education in some form or another since graduating in 1990. I have taught at all levels from beginners to post-graduate level within contexts ranging from schools through further and adult to higher education. I have also worked extensively in community media and arts, enabling traditionally disadvantaged groups and individuals to have more control over and a greater understanding of the processes of the media (see ROGUE). I have worked closely with the Centre for Urban and Community Research at University of London Goldsmiths’ College, where I helped to develop lens media and urbanism projects for the new Millennium and a new MA course. Until recently I delivered a range of modules on the BTEC Professional Development Certificate in Photography and Digital Imaging programme as well as a range of Advanced Photographic Practice courses.
I am currently discussing the possibility of working voluntarily on a photographic project with street children in either Saigon (Ho Chi Minh City), Viet Nam or Phnom Penh, Cambodia, (see Urban Documentary) two places which I visited recently and feel inexorably drawn back to.
