Staged Interiors peers inside the private rooms of online peep shows. Captured through the internet, these are momentary snapshots inside the real-time world of the female webcam model. Known as “camgirls”, they exhibit online sex shows broadcast live through the aid of the internet. These images are focused on their absence from scene. Through their temporarily deserted interiors, the spaces are stages of both imminence and expectation, public and private, positioning the viewer in the role of the modern day ‘peeping tom’.

We are living in a post-privacy time. A period where the world in a sense hinges on meeting strangers. Not only can we interact with them anonymously, we can pay, confide, photograph and fulfil our most intimate desires without leaving the comfort of our own home. In turn, the worker can come and go as they please. This represents a break from the traditional formulation of the adult industry, and present us with a different kind of intimacy: one beyond the flesh.

After completing Bachelor of Arts in Photography at RMIT University, Melbourne I became interested in vacant spaces devoid of physical presence, typical environments in a state of flux that suggests a human presence. Projects such as “Psychopolis”, former mental asylums, “Continuous Temporality”, vacated retail shops, “Shallow Hours”, an off-peak beachside and “The Mimics of Men” a site of a former ‘human zoo’. Since 2016, vacancy has been replaced with desire. This can be seen in autobiographical works such as “Wish You Were", "Staged Interiors", "Cellophane Flowers", and a current untitled series of online dating portraits.
