Barely a Scrape
From a 'work in progress' series entitled "Barely a Scrape", these images set out to explore and attempt to capture the social, historical and geological landscape of West Cornwall. Exploring the tensions between natural forces and human presence, bringing together narratives of climatic turmoil, atmospheric changes or primordial evolution and erosion. There is a sense that an ambiguity has always existed about this land - the contrast between the picturesque and the harsh reality - the visiting photo-snapping tourists in their open top buses and the day-to-day grind for farmers eking out an existence from fields whose boundaries have not changed since the Iron age. Here the earth is a mere scrape barely covering the hard granite lying just underneath its surface.
