Reflections on Project 1: form and evocation and how others speak visually about landscapes
I introduced myself to some of Godwin and Burtensky’s some years ago and so will not repeat my thoughts from back then here. However I do think it’s worth spending some time comparing and contrasting their styles and approach as … Continue reading
Another approach the landscape – getting somewhere

My current research and practice
Practice My practice is generated via two major impulses: the first is about making visual statements as expressions of my feelings and experience and owes a lot to the work of people like Jo Spence and Andres Serrano. Indeed I … Continue reading
