Elemental #316: RMA (Relativistic Mycelium Awakening)

Burnham Beechs, 2021

.

Work from pandemic years. Series of 3.

.

 

.

** Site of Photograph **

Burnham Beeches, Hawthorn Lane, Lord Mayors Drive, Slough, England.

.

** Found Materials at location **

Standing forest water, stream water, , pine needles, windfall leaves and moss, humus.

.

.

How do I do this??

Minute amounts of water, windfall samples - organic and mineral - are collected from the very landscape depicted within each picture - and chemically bonded with the film over 12 months.

.

The result:

A nature-disrupted film process that creates unedited images that are inbetween a classic photograph and a totally abstract image, depicting the interaction between fundamental chemical elements present at each place & time, representing a more visceral and literal experience of being present in landscapes in a constant state of natural or unnatural flux.
