Journeys through industrial landscapes
My work in this exhibition shows work in progress on a project concerned with industrial landscapes in Britain. I am trying to capture what I experience as I walk through some of our industrial heritage. I take advantage of the digital camera to capture images quickly and instinctively, and then process them without editing or compensating for under or overexposure.
I am also exploring those landscapes through research into old maps, with the aim of linking these landscapes today with their industrial past. Sometimes all that remains may be a place name.
