Terra Incognita: On This Land | In This Land | Of This Land is now on at Dalby Forest Courtyard until 28th June.

The work explores the conflicted concepts of land access and ownership and how restricted access impacts on our human relationship with, and stewardship of, the land. The series questions how we can care for a land we feel disconnected from and asks how we have as a society becomes estranged from a land we once would have considered kin.

Thank you to everyone who came along yesterday to the launch and to listen to my talk. So lovely to have such engaging and interesting debate and discussion on the subject and share my practice with everyone.

Thank you again to Dalby Forest for inviting me to show the work.

New zine!

A thousand tiny deaths questions the disparity in the significance we place on human lives and their passing and that of the non-human. Presented in the form of a small memorial book it challenges our human-centric approach elevating the passing of 'insignificant' lives. In doing so it poses the notion that creatures big and small are equally significant - or indeed insignificant.

The collection was sparked by the accidental death of a pigeon that flew into my van windscreen whilst driving, which evoked an expectedly visceral and emotional response at the chance ending of a life form at my own 'hands'.

A6. Staple bound. Recycled uncoated 120gsm paper. Edition of 25.

£6.50 plus P&P

DM me if interested (they're not on my website yet but will be!)

Sometimes images don't make the cut and then they get forgotten about. While I was going through image files to print a handmade copy of my book Fragments for a client, I came back across these. They were made in the early stages of the project that became Fragments, when I was still considering what the work was about, scavenging items from the flotsam and jetsam along the wrackline and photographing them large format back in the studio out of context, and exploring the possibilities of developing with seaweed developer. In the end I settled on a motif of rocks - some of which became my monoliths series - to sit alongside the abstracted images created from soaking negatives in seawater. And so the items discarded by the sea became images discarded by me, sitting on my harddrive. I thought it was time they were dusted off a little here for the algorithm at least! Maybe I should do some limited edition prints?

I've been working on zines and small publications lately finally pulling together some small projects that have been percolating in the background for a while,.as well as working on the upcoming zine with as part of our creative collaboration Limen.

And I've been revisiting some older projects such as this one: Fragments - a sculptural handmade photo book considering the metamorphic effect of time on memories and associations of the seascape.

The book was created with imagery that uses the sea as a key part of the process - either in the form of seaweed developer or developed negatives/polaroids steeped in seawater allowing the sea to leave it's salty trace on the final degraded and distorted images.

Presented as a sculptural map, it uses a Turkish map fold to create a book that mirrors the appearance of a traditional road or ordinance survey map. Grappling with our cartographic impulses, the 'map' resists our urges to orient ourselves, instead unfolding to reveal and obscure imagery that continuously shifts as the viewer moves through it, creating new abstract worlds in constant flux.

This map does not unfold to flatten and reveal the contours of the landscape or enable the viewer to ground themselves, but creates a transitional space where past, present and future can co-exist, disorientating the viewer and inviting them to lose themselves in the ever evolving traces and fragments of memories.

Limited editions are available, made to order. DM me for details.
