Elemental #318: Flower study Cheslyn, 2021

Work from pandemic years. Series of 6.

.

.

** Site of Photograph **

Cheslyn, Nascot, Watford, Hertfordshire, South East, UK

.

** Location Micro-samples Added **

Acidic-soil dust, standing water from pools created by woods leaf drops, pond water with algae.

.

.

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.
