Two separate residencies in 2017 and 2021 at Lower Hewood Farm.

2021 - Site-specific response to the pond at Lower Hewood Farm, for the Past-Oral exhibition. Responding to a newly cleared pond and within a copse, I created a series of large-scale fabric cyanotypes using ferns and other plants foraged from the site. The works were exposed and washed entirely within the landscape: rinsed in the pond water, exposed beneath the woodland canopy, altered by passing rain showers, and hung to dry on a makeshift washing line between the trees. The finished cyanotypes were reinstalled inside the farmhouse, bringing traces of the landscape into the domestic interior.

2017 - Land art and book making at Lower Hewood Farm, based in the barn. During an earlier residency at Lower Hewood Farm in 2017, I explored the relationship between land art, photography and bookmaking. Working from the barn studio space, I created Woodland Ephemera, a Japanese stab-bound artist's book with covers made from handmade paper incorporating foraged plants gathered around the farm. The photographs document a series of small-scale land art interventions and ephemeral happenings made or discovered within the surrounding woodland, reflecting on the quiet, temporary gestures that emerge through close observation and time spent in the rural landscape.
