Redundant in a Landscape

2011-12-03T11:56:00.000-08:00

Walking along sections of the Cromford canal, near the village of Jacksdale in Nottinghamshire. The canal was used to transport coal to factories by narrowboat, but became redundant when the railway was built. The area is heavily overgrown but dotted amongst this landscape are architectural relics of an industrial past.

'Awakening in his dark room, Marcel finds himself in a photographic space. What whirls before him in this dark space is not only the changing, unseen walls, the doors, the furniture, but also all the things, places, and years that remain written within his memory. Like a spectator in the dark projection hall of a cinema, he encounters a succession of images moving before him with rapidity that, in bringing together the past and the present, prevents him from orientating himself in relation to either the image, the past, or the present.'

Eduardo Cadava discussing Marcel Proust's 'Remembrance of Things Past'.

Elephants are large land mammals in two extant genera of the family Elephantidae: Elephas and Loxodonta, with the third genus Mammuthus extinct.

Pre-production drawings completed for the film 'Immortal Stories', when the project was at a very early stage of applying to the Wellcome Trust for funding. The subsequent film took a very different direction when awarded the Sciart Award, focusing on Hollywood's portrayal of cancer.

Window Shadows

One of the benefits of sharing a studio are the conversations.

In a similar way being within education allows one to

constantly engage in creative dialogues - perhaps the

greatest thing about teaching? Ian Wright in the studio drew

my attention to the shadows cast by glasses on the window

sills at certain times during the day. One of those chance conversations that plants ideas for future work, or perhaps

an appreciation of something very simple and beautiful.

The City resembles a Fairy-Tale and is so magical that it will at some time, perhaps when least expected, so captivate even its harshest critic that he will never again be entirely free of its spell...
