Contribute to online art project - www.marineplastic.org at Global

April 15, 2010 at 6pm to April 15, 2025 at 6pm
I am asking artists, photographers, beach combers, foragers and anyone else to send photos and location details of interesting Marine Plastic that they find beached during their wanderings of the shores of the world.

Profile Information

Where are you?
Waterford, Ireland
What kind of work do you do?
Abstract landscape based paintings; environment based installations; memories of place and time interwoven with colour and light. Most recent art work: as part of Gateways Festival, Co Wicklow, used photographs taken during 2008 study of award-winning Special Area of Conservation - Fenor Bog. Images were printed on recycled drafts of MA in Arts and Heritage Management thesis and woven through bars of an open gate.
Art that made me think about things:
Had the pleasure of revisiting John Constable's 'The Cornfield', in October 2009 in conjunction with Chris Watson's sound interpretation of the work at the National Gallery, London. Watson's difficulty in sourcing clean recordings of birdsong, without the hum of modern life, brought home just how much we have lost. Watson's recreation of the spatial depth in the artwork, through sound, bridged the 80 year gap and created an immediacy and intimacy between audience and artist that was palpable.
