Many of his photographs involve children or child-like settings, which probably stemmed off of him studying to teach children with disabilities. He focuses his work on a philosophy called homo ludens, which is a man who learns from play.
A little earlier in career in 2008-2009, he was using more photo manipulation than now, but not in the sense you might think of. Here's a couple of photographs from his mutatis mutandis series:

I love his manipulations (the last two). At first, I almost thought it was some sort of projection, and he was jumping in front of it. Great work and great job!
