Description
“Strong exeltred cart that is clouted and shod,
Cart ladder and wimble with percer and pod,
Wheel ladder for harvest, light pitchfork and tough
Shave whiplash well knotted and cartrope enough”
The first in a series of four wheel pictures inspired by the turning of the rural year and its cyclical nature in parallel to the cycles of life
Words adapted from Thomas Tusser’s Five Hundred Pointes of Good Husbandrie
This piece appeared in a 2020 exhibition called Hinterland: an exploration of liminal space
Nature, Folklore, dreamworlds, myth, folk song, colour, form, patterns and forces in nature are all key inspirations for pieces in this exhibition collection.
Hinterland is an exploration of in-between spaces such as borders, boundaries, shorelines and other such places in nature. The work also explores more abstract ideas of hinterlands, such as areas lying beyond what is visible or known, the blurred lines between folklore, myth and reality, life and death or dream and consciousness
