Land's End: About
'Excursions into mountains, to remote islands or regions, to ‘wilderness’, may be seen as offering ‘space’ for self-replenishment. Space also refers to that which exists between the determinate; distance between identifiable geographical points, or the interval between words or lines on a page. This in-betweenness may be categorical, or it may be taken as an arena of slippages testifying to the fluidity of meaning. ‘Space’ flows around the determinant, the quantifiable, inducing metaphysical unboundedness, the poetic, indeterminacy, voidness. To be void is to be meaningless, to lack designation.'
- from 'Land Matters' by Liz Wells'The project starts from a position of lack, & represents an attempt to create a body of work using minimal, often textural elements such as geological features, the gloomy drama of the Irish weather, seascapes & mountain terrain — in combination with the limitations & imperfections of analogue photography. It involves patterns of revisitation & repetition; over the years, motifs & scenes become recurrent, varying according to seasonal & temporal shifts. This is, in turn, echoed in the parallel & distinct act of developing, processing & reworking the photographic materials in various forms.'
