Request QuoteA completely self taught visual artist, specialising in photography and moving image. Christopher has developed the skills to hunt out a story, make contact, gain access and win people over worldwide. He lived in a Colombian community of drug addict rubbish recyclers, spending every day of a year getting closer to my subjects and gaining deeper access to the story. In the UK I infiltrated the Northern football hooligan gang, Burnley Suicide Squad and was accepted into an exclusive dangerous community being granted permission to film and access their private and often illegal antics. I seek to push boundaries and will do whatever it takes to bring a story to life and express the intimate yet sometimes sordid realities of life. Last year I created http://www.poisonflower.tv my first 60min feature documentary, currently on the film festival circuit. I infiltrated & lived for a year with a gang of homeless heroin addicts.

Short film I shot & directed - Featured on NOWNESS website. Using street dancers to tell the story of orphaned child gangs in Dakar. “I wanted to portray the intensity that these children live through with the fierce and angry nature of krumping, whilst showcasing the vibrancy of Dakar, the most westerly African peninsular.”
