Thank you, Gill. That is kind to say. They do take time, mostly the gathering of images and process of experimenting. The larger ones are then a culmination of that. I am faster than I was, for sure, but the pleasure of it is the slower pace.
Wow yes that is a stunning film I have yet to see. I hope to share tryptic soon. Happy to discuss images and weaves with you. The one I am making brings the sands of a quarry to those of a shore with swimmers. Not a river by a confluence of waters and ideas.
It touches a deep question in my life: How do retain our humanity, in Modernity?
Our technologies aren't going away; how then do we continue to receive creation as it was intended: gift, abundance, and ultimately "logos-structured" means of communion with our creator,
while navigating spaces and livelihoods increasingly sealed off from this gift, increasingly synthetic; increasingly "mediated" by human modification?
What impact on the psyche, when we swim beaches not created by God but now built by our industries?
What happens to our "eucharistic instincts" when surrounded by the glory of human achievements and less and less by the glory of the logoi of creation?
This is a rich comment I will think on. The interplay of creator, humanity and creation is the dance of existence. A multi dimensional, multi storied landscape to unfold to find our place in it all.

A fascinating article Kieran and I love the weave images. They must take ages to construct but the result is quite beautiful.

Absolutely gorgeous.
I think the idea of a tryptic in the fashion your friend requested is a fabulous idea.
I'm interested!
On rivers: If you haven't seen this lovely, haunting documentary ( a work of art in itself) I highly recommend it:

I love this conceptually-

Look forward to seeing it.

Beautifully written and full of interest
Thank you, Gilbert! We must visit there on a photo journey. V close to Edinburgh.
