Sediment, 2023 –
‘Sediment’ is a ‘thinking on the ground’ about sediment transportation on Morecambe Bay. The video emerged at a time of rapid salt marsh and mudflat erosion near the River Keer estuary and is open ended and unresolved, much like the environment itself. ‘Sediment’ is part of a research practice that considers how the more-than-human Morecambe Bay can meaningfully inform conservation, cultural, and social practices in response to climate change.

A short experimental iPhone video that plays with scale on eroding mudflats.
Crossings, 2021
‘Crossings’ is an essay film about walking with the tides, marshes, and mudflats near my home on Morecambe Bay during the Covid-19 pandemic. The work explores aspects of time in relation to place, my physical and mental relationship with the environment through walking, and mobile technology.
I shot the film on my iPhone because its portability allowed me to respond intuitively to events taking place in the moment. Recording on such a small mobile device felt quite intimate and, at times, the work started to shift tentatively towards performance.
