I love drawing and photographing textures and objects from nature. From wood bark and rock to animal skulls and dry stone walls. This project took eight months to complete. I photographed a Kilometre of one of my favourite old country roads in Cornwall and recorded it on 1000 photographs. I built a special rig to make sure each shot was the same height and angle and 3 metres further on from the previous. Then all 1000 photographs were printed onto wood. This gave a natural texture to each shot. Each piece of wood was positioned on white painted dowel in a deep box frame. This gave depth and dimension with a 1000 changing shadows As I went along the road I looked for signs of creatures who had lived or passed through there. Owl pellets, droppings, feathers, carcasses and animal skulls that told the story of who had crossed the road. With each clue I drew the skull of that animal in pen and ink - 23 drawings in all. Each of these was made into a brass seal. A special wax was created to stop cracking and give the seals longevity. 1000 photos. 532 wax seals depicting the skulls of the 24 species of animals and where they lived along a kilometre of road. All held in 4 frames to create one, three-dimensional piece of art. A Kilometre of silent screams.
