Thanks to Rowan Arts and Islington Exhibits 2013 for giving me the opportunity; this installation is something I’d wanted to create for a long time.
Here are some documentary images, and some footage (without sound), and a record of viewer comments.

Some of the lovely comments left by visitors:
“Exquisitely, skilfully crafted photographs. I love the movement, the merging of one image and sense into another. You have a gift for finding such serene beauty in the easy to pass by scenes of everyday life.”
“I liked the rambling impact of nature against buildings. The urban mundanity and beauty, emphasised by plants, trees, shadows, walls, windows makes my senses dream.”
“It perfectly demonstrates how things are really out of our control.”
“Has a strangely compelling quality – the way the images move through a journey – and each time you look you find yourself drawn in further.”
“I love the way the prints almost pour into each other. It’s very hypnotic.”
“It is wonderful the way that very ordinary everyday things are transformed into something very mysterious.”
“I could feel the same dreamlike gaze that you must have had on your night walk. It took me back to memories of my own walks at night time – the larger than life plants, the dark leaves but bright flowers. For some reason I find the vegetation says more at night and that really came across through the texture and light and shade.”
Footage:
I had a great time meeting people and seeing/hearing their responses, and I learned so much more about the work from those interactions. Thanks everyone!

Original Polaroid Emulsion Lift onto acid free water colour paper. Signed recto, mounted on conservation grade board. Each print is unique and handmade by me. 1 in a set of 6 images, from a limited edition run of 30 sets.
Image size – approximately 12cm x 9cm, mount size A3.
Prints are available as single images or sets. For more information please contact me.
Shot underwater, the photographs are made into Polaroid 669 prints and soaked in a hot water bath to lift the emulsion containing the image from the paper beneath. The emulsion is then floated onto water colour paper and arranged into position. The very nature of the process continues the theme of the subject matter, and ensures that each original handmade print is completely unique in its tones and arrangement.
