Meet the Makers
Saturday 12th July
2pm - 4pm
Adam, Peter and Phil will be in attendance.
I am a photographer interested in abstracting the view through my lens. I often incorporate layering and intentional camera movement in my nature-based images. For this exhibition, I'm creating works through multiple-exposures of trees superimposed over one another. Inspired by Druantia, the Celtic Goddess of Trees. The black and white imagery strips away the surface to reveal something mysterious and altogether more visceral within our woodlands. The result evoke feelings of melancholy as I explore the emotions connected to habitat loss, environmental damage and climate change.

I'm very excited to announce that my Moon Tide Sun Salt series is currently being exhibited at Jilly Oxlade-Arnott's vibrant gallery in Pershore.

Moon Tide Sun Salt XI
Moon Tide Sun Salt
The salt crystal shapes I have recorded are the result of earthly forces, elements of nature and the solar system uniting …... in Cornwall.
A trip to the beach is exciting. What will I find? What have the Sun and Moon created? Each salt crystal shape is fragile, impermanent and unique. To study and record them is a joy.

Elements of my work are becoming more abstract ........ blame it on the light.
Over the last year I've been experimenting with Intentional Camera Movement (ICM) and longer shutter speeds. Both of these techniques allow me to paint with light, form and colour. It may sound obvious, but as humans, we can only see that which reflects light ........... I told you it was obvious, but not something that is an everyday thought or influence on us. But, when considering it as a photographer, it can become very creative and exciting.
Examples of this style of work can be seen on this site. There are lots of unknowns when trying these techniques, But, with time (and lots of deletes) the process can become more known and with a new understanding of light, form and colour I have been slowly learning and developing my own technique to create the images that you see here.
I'm learning my way around the software on my new website so I can add new content inc my Blog.
Please return again soon to see updates + consider contacting me to put yourself on my mail list.
I'm proud to be a member of the Gallery @ The Guild Arts Cooperative - 27 artists and makers. So many talents!
The coffee bar is pretty good as well!
