Natural Land Sculpture


When working on the 'Aleatoric Country Walks', I discovered many pathways, that would be there one day and reclaimed by nature the next.

Today on my walks I decided to capture a few.



They reminded me of Richard Longs Land Sculptures.


I felt they had a story of their own. Who had walked this way? Why had they passed through these meadows? where were they going and why? the questions are endless and yet tomorrow they will not be there. The meadow will reclaim them.....

In The Dock - Chatham



Work at Chatham


The opening evening at Chatham - It was great to see my work in an environment that had space. To be able to walk around the sculpture and see it from all angles, that was how it was intended. Thank you to everyone that came to the private view.

Preparing Aleatoric Country Walks Sculpture


 I had decided to display the images on plinths, elevating the image to its real size in the real world. The 24 plinths would be placed as the images had been taken in a 6 x 4 sculpture. Therefore the preparation of the plinths was as important as the images.

Many Thanks to Vicky Paine, (a good friend of many years) for making the plinths to order. And A big big thank you to my studio buddy Peps and Alan my partner for all your hard work in the painting, sanding, filling etc. Much much appreciated it would have took me weeks without your help. Dinner on me.....





Once the plinths were ready it all started to come together.



Then there was the cutting of the images.



The placing of the images on the plinths as taken.
