F O R E S T S

Forests is an on going project and investigation, combining a variety of my practices. Photography and collage form the basis of a future installation, aiming to incorporate; sight, smell and sound. My work conveys a sense of memory among multiple images. The ideology that something has been photographed or put together that can no longer be seen or will be seen again. The focus on line is paramount to guide the eye through a forest that doesn't exist - yet it is from existing imagery.

Photo collage installation. 2M 77CM

Sound piece. 4 Minutes

F O R E S T S - Fingerprints DeliCafe

Forests is a body of work which portrays the impact and depth of the forest landscape, with the long-lasting technique of darkroom photography and photo montage.
