Desideratum is a series of gothic noir black-and-white digital images drawing on visual elements of stone, mist, shadow, exploring the mystic spaces between day and night, and drawing on themes of silence, longing, innocence, and unease.

There was a young man of the village whose mother sent him on a long journey. "This cat catches no mice. You must take the animal to my sister, who lives at the base of the mountain. She knows herbs which will coax the cat to accept its own nature as a hunter. Only a stupid son would bring home a cat that doesn't know how to be a cat."
