When the landscape becomes a state of mind…

01/08/2026

I’ve spent the past week in the studio sequencing, printing and rethinking Touched by the Sea. What began with a handful of photographs exploring time is slowly becoming a book that is beginning to tell its own story.

After countless hours of editing, printing and rearranging, the first chapter is beginning to find its rhythm.

A story about time, tides and the traces they leave behind. About moments so brief they almost escape our attention, and changes so slow that we only notice them in retrospect.

I tried to remake a photograph I had made almost ten years ago.

I couldn’t.

For the past few weeks I’ve been a little quiet here. A jaw surgery kept me away from the studio much longer than I had expected, but I’m slowly getting back to work.

Just before that, around the summer solstice, I returned to one of the very first locations from my long-term project Touched by the Sea.

The landscape had changed so much, and at first I thought these new images had failed.

Now I wonder if they reveal something more important:

not the place I remembered,

but the place time has made…

and where the project is taking me.

This week I sent out my biweekly newsletter in which I shared this image, Summer Solstice, along with a story about a bird.

While making this image, a bird briefly landed on my pinhole camera, which was attached to a fence post. Later, when I developed the photograph, something what looked to me like a bird in flight appeared in the image.

Today, I was startled by a sound on the glass dome above my studio. A curious oystercatcher had landed there and was tapping on the glass with its beak.

Every summer, birds seem to find their way to this dome. They like to take a look inside but rarely stay long enough for a photograph. They always make me look up from my work, though.

Sometimes, they even leave a trace behind.

If you’d like to receive my newsletter, send me a DM.

Working on a photobook dummy.

Looking for connections between photographs made over several years.

Slowly, a story begins to emerge.

In a recent newsletter for people interested in my workshops, I wrote that I thought these analogue photographs had failed.
That the shells weren’t visible in the way I expected them to be.

But when I looked at the scans, they turned out to be there all along.

They had simply escaped my attention at first.

Perhaps seeing is shaped as much by expectation as by observation.

I tried to go back to an image
but it wasn’t the same anymore

19/04/2026

I went back to where it started.

To remake one of the first images I made here.

Same place, same position.
Years apart.

The landscape has changed, slowly shaped by erosion.

Trying to close the circle.

Part of an ongoing body of work.

I went back to where it started.

To remake one of the first images from this series.

My son filmed this moment, retrieving the camera after 24 hours in the mud.

Same place, same position on the seawall.

But time has reshaped the landscape.
The wall has grown thinner, slowly worn down by erosion.

Trying to close the circle.

This is one of two images I’m revisiting.
I’ll share the result soon.
