24 Hours in Somerset. A Winter’s Tale.
My artist’s book was produced following a brief residency at Hauser & Wirth Somerset in the late fall of 2016, my response to the landscape.
I saw pheasant, sheep and cows in abundance and birds, whose names I never knew.
I was curious to learn the names of the trees and the bushes.
I wandered the meandering footpaths through farmer’s fields.
I loved the dark, muddy fields, the fallen leaves and the puddles, the wild swans, the crows and the ruins.
A certain timeless quality, no past, no future.
A continuous now.
An infinite now of skies and fields.
Fences to mend and gardens to tend.
