Veneer is an ongoing photo-project seeking to uncover and exhibit the vulnerabilities, fears and hopes that can often be concealed and shrouded by dominant paradigms of masculinity.

By encouraging self-expression, 'Veneer' attempts to achieve nothing less than the eradication of toxic forms of masculinity.

I believe that, whilst improving with time, masculinity is often very restrictive of the emotions of young men, encouraging supposedly masculine traits such as ruggedness, heterosexuality, strength, aggression and a 'bottling up' of vulnerability, self-compassion, self-expression and self acceptance.

Collaborations/Contributions are very welcome.
