Rita Soromenho
Peripatetics
Setting out on a journey without defined destination I walk across the city's back gardens and wastelands picking flowers. Moved by real and fictional wanderlust, each walk is a meditation on its sites, sights and on the passage of time. Continuing a photographic camera less approach, using a scanner, each still life subjectively illustrates a journey. Nature's fragility and beauty, Human struggle and strength, Victorian Women's past-times, progress and urban regeneration, Life, Death and Loss, are some of the thoughts I hope still live in the pictures. Reminiscent of the flower painting tradition and the theme of vanitas, the project echoes the situational derive and other contemporary practices engaging with urban space and the act of wandering.
