“I’m interested in ideas around being lost, loneliness and the symbolic aspects of darkness - it is synonymous with fear of the unknown. In the darkness familiar places are psychologically changed; most of one’s certainty about what is there has been removed as you can only see a few yards ahead. When your eyes have little information, your imagination takes over and fills in the gaps.”
— Jasper Goodall

Wälder (Forests) From Romaniticism to the Future. 16.03.24 — 11.08.24

I am delighted to be a part of this exhibition at Museum Sinclair-Haus, Bad Homburg, Frankfurt which explore connections between romantic and contemporary ideas about the forest - especially against the background of current ecological crises.

In the exhibition at the Sinclair House Museum, contemporary art enters into exciting dialogues with works of Romanticism. In three chapters, visitors experience how artists make the beauty, liveliness and sometimes eeriness emanating from the forest tangible. visit Museum Sinclair-Haus here.

Verdant: A new print series.

Available through The Tree Art Gallery, VERDANT is a series of three large prints with life sized botanical specimens arranged as a green wall. The images are a result of visits to wooded river valleys in Wales and South West England where species were photographed in-situ using an ‘outdoor studio’ and flash photography to achieve consistent lighting. These individual specimens were then meticulously cut out and collaged to create a large composition that, whilst retaining a natural feel, results in a considered, curated image.

Each composition is named after its most prominent woodland berry, in this instance Rowan features. To see more please visit the gallery page in works or visit the Tree Art Gallery.

After a break of almost 30 years, I spent yesterday in the darkroom. The results were encouraging and exciting. The sense of the image being in and of the paper as opposed to ink sitting on top of it is palpable, sentiments I’d heard others spe
