shadow and light works with paper and mirror offer temporary, playful ways to connect with a landscape. While walking, can offer glimpses into more than human life. In city spaces; a way to look more closely at micro insect and plant life.
Paper works are made from recycled paper with varying plant material (2020-ongoing) They seek to hold - momentarily - the shadows of plant life in sunlight and the hidden intricacies in the environment.
I often use mirror and paper discs as a placemaking tool, to explore local ecologies with communities. Mirror works above were photographed as part of a walking as healing event for Healing Arts Scotland in Aberdeen, August 2024.
Paper and light works inspired the walking recipe for WalkCreate’s walk book. The publication included 20 recipes from walking artists for wellbeing activity in response to the Pandemic. Please click on the image below for more information and access to my elemental walking recipe.
