Our Newsletter: Issue #40

Hello, and welcome to another issue of Our Newsletter.

A few days ago I had a thought:
If I photographed my artworks outside, amongst the grass and the trees,
what would that look like?

Obviously I had to find out. And honestly,
I think I may have found a new favourite way to situate and photograph my work.

The natural light gave a whole other dimension to the colours depending on where I was photographing from, (unsurprisingly).
But, as someone that is absolutely fascinated by how lighting can alter colour and consequently mood, seeing my pieces change depending on the setting is always a small source of magic and wonder for me.

From a theoretical viewpoint, photographing like this also links deliciously with my scope of interest in exploring human/nature narratives.

Lots of love,
