FRAMED Shifting Sands

2025
Monoprint
66 x 25cm framed 
Printed on Kitakata 36gsm mounted on Somerset Satin 300gsm
 
Part of a series inspired by standing on the highest dune, right above the beach at Winterton-on-Sea looking back over the land, then turning towards the sea. The sands are constantly being pinned down by vegetation yet altered by the wind and the sea.
 
Thoughts of impermanence, flux and constant change in the landscape alongside the permanence of historic habitats and the species who depend upon it stretching back through time are juxtaposed in these works.  This is a landscape is a place that very much feels like it belongs to itself first.
 
This work is framed in charcoal by Alastair Smithers Framing.
