ICY ENCOUNTERS:

Icy Encounters is a collection of wildlife observations from Arctic environments, documenting species adapted to life in cold, remote and changing conditions.

The work centres on patience and distance. Encounters unfold on the animals’ terms, shaped by terrain, weather and light. Some moments are fleeting, others remain unresolved, reflecting the reality of working in these landscapes.

Rather than focusing on spectacle, this series explores presence, scale and the quiet dynamics between wildlife and environment.
