A series following on from Solaria. Created in Fleinvaer, an archipelago of islands off northern Norway, as part of a funded residency at The Arctic Hideaway. Made in collaboration with the sun, ocean, rocks, sand, wind, rain, hail, seasalt and algae.
Created around this remote tiny island, largely on raw cotton canvas - the works evolved over many hours and days in collaboration with the sun and natural elements found there.
Here the weather was a particularly active participant with storms, hail, wind all contributing to the final works.
