At a time just before Covid in 2019, I was welcomed into people’s homes to document their relationship with their personal space - “Home”. Shot in various households around London and Brighton, the project features sitters between the ages 20 - 68 from diverse backgrounds. The portraits disclose, age, occupation, how much they pay for rent/how much they purchased their home for and how long they have lived in their home.
