Conceived and developed in France in 2009, these images examine the radical transformation of the Loire River Estuary and its traditional industries.
Reluctant Monoliths calls to our attention that all is flow, all boundaries are provisional, all space is permeable. In this realm, we are in a landscape of uncertainty, within a cultural landscape of permanent flux, transition and opposition. Spaces are primed with a sense of purpose yet they are marginal, fragmented and dispersed.
The images are poised on the edge of abstraction, yet they denote a psychological presence. Space, in my work, is always in a subjective state of transitional transformation: it embodies a wider atemporal dimension.
