"My memory isn't very good. It feels like I've been living life so fast for the last 10 years that everything else has been pushed from my mind."
Growing up through the rave generation and working in commercial design through the internet revolution has greatly influenced George's photography.
This influence has led George to turn away from the bright lights of the branded commercial world. His subjects concentrate on the past, life passing, forgotten moments, childhood memories and physical creations using analogue objects.
"My work looks to take in moments of stillness. Times when we can take a breath and pause in the mad pace of the modern world before it swallows us up and then spits us out seconds later onto the pavement. I love these magical seconds, like when snow is falling slowly in large flakes and the world seems to start floating towards it."
Georges professional design background also influences his images, with projects that create abstract images focusing solely on colour, form and texture.
