Waves in Space | 2023
Enamored by the multitude of plasma waves in space, this photo series exhibits the diverse characteristics of wave motion. Some small, some large, some elusive, some massive - these waves wiggle, gyrate, pulsate, and spiral in various directions. While showcasing five prominent waves in space plasma, there are 500, plus unknowns, that exist.

Sun Dance Series | 2023
Inspired by collision-less plasma and magnetohydrodynamics, these images interpret the extraordinary features of the Sun and the solar wind. A celebration of the unique and stunning corona, a dramatic place where energy converses in nuance and power, to inevitably release and expand out into space. Each image expresses the fluid nature of collision-less plasma, while comprised of individual pixels representing individual particles. This series showcases a system that seamlessly shares knowledge without any physical contact - As Dr Karl Trattner excitedly put it, “One particle moves, and everybody knows.”
