Land art

The land where I am rooted during the year inspires all my land art creations and installations. In winter and spring this is the downs, beaches, fields and woodlands of the south east, Sussex, Kent and Hampshire. In Summer the warmth and light of the Costa Brava brings a different but equally inspiring set of ideas to fill my mind.

  • Pale driftwood branches propped together like a bare tree on a sandy beach, with waves and a deep blue sky behind.

    Collected driftwood branches from beach and reconnected them to form a stand of dead trees, giving them life once more.

  • Scattered driftwood branches lying on a wide sandy beach, with footprints in the sand and sunlit sea beyond.

  • Two weathered dark timber posts on a pebble beach with a pale flint stone wedged between their tops, under a grey sky.

  • Tall chalk and flint boulders balanced upright on a beach, with a row of old groyne posts and calm sea behind.

  • Rows of weathered wooden stakes, the remains of old tidal defences, standing on a pebbly shore in low golden light.
