The 3-person exhibition, Disrupted Landscapes, featuring photography and video by Colin Pantall, Dawn Rodgers, and myself, took place at Four Corners 13-16 March. The show was installed on the Tuesday, opened on Wednesday and the private view was Thursday evening. We wanted as many people as possible to see it in this short space of time and we were delighted with the response we received to our exhibition.
It had been a long time since I had exhibited a body of work in London, as past solo exhibitions took place in Margate, Brighton, and Worthing, Sussex. I had wanted to show my Disrupted Landscapes project for a while as the MA grad show was unable to open due to full lockdown in early 2021. The project has grown since then, and this exhibition featured work from 2020 - 2024. Four Corners with its long history of showing activist photography was the perfect place for this work.
My project Disrupted Landscapes was given a wonderful boost by being included in the March issue of the British Journal of Photography. Late last year I was interviewed by Philippa Kelly for the magazine’s March issue focusing on Virtual Reality. This section looked at how photographers use form to make a statement, and featured five photographers commenting on the land. I am delighted to be a part of this inspiring issue, and am grateful to the editor, Diane Smyth, for thinking of my work, and also for visiting the exhibition.
