This July I have been in residency at the Mitsubishi Ichigokan Museum in Tokyo (Japan) delivering a series of talks and photography workshops as part of the museum’s education and outreach programme. The residency programme was designed as experimental gallery sessions where participants were introduced to a range of early photographic processes in relation to the museum Julia Margaret Cameron exhibition.
Fantasy High Street & Team London Bridge commissioned me to produce a site specific outdoors installation responding to the theme Revealed, the piece needed to integrate nature within a urban environment.
Photogramming Nature is an interaction between photography and nature, a home for silhouettes and beautiful flower, plant and leaf outlines. Created using the early photographic cyanotype process, the silhouettes are recorded directly on the greenhouse panels through contact printing and exposure to natural UV light.
The piece was installed in Potters Field Park for the launch of Revealed Festival and it is now permanently installed in White Grounds, London Bridge.
