Tina Jane Hatton-Gore

Isolation, loneliness and abandonment: scarecrows simulate humanity. There is something there, but not life. Guardians of seedlings, their protective function reversed as these folklore figures vanish from landscapes, replaced by mechanical wind sculptures, gunfire and pesticides. Linked to the birds they are designed to frighten, a sense of community and safety in numbers prevails, placed together in the garden during lockdown. Nature reasserts calm and beauty to a polluted and damaged earth.
