The Ridgeway

I walked the Ridgeway, an 87 miles ancient trackway that runs between Ivinghoe Beacon and Avebury, with two friends. We walked linear stretches over a 9 month period. The seasons passed. I saw the rough ploughed fields of winter become swards of spring green, and summer meadows dance with wild flowers and tall grasses in high winds.

The use of collage enabled me to introduce both the static of the topography, and the dynamic movement in the meadows.

These works were shown at Wiclote Art Studios during Oxfordshire Artweeks 2019.
