On Edinburgh’s beach, the early summer weather draws the sailing club to the shore, congretating before boarding the boats.
The works embody transience as a form of resistance to digital ephemerality, grounding themselves in the physicality of tactile craftsmanship. Following on from the monograph …IN SUNNY PORTOBELLO (Align Romance Press, ISBN 978-1-3999-7267-3) –centred on the rejuvenation and social inclusivity of Edinburgh’s beach area, the image selection reflect a recent and evolving practice, offering fleeting glimpses of the unguarded human condition at rest by blurring the boundaries of reality. Here, abstraction emerges organically through material processes within capture, film, developer treatments, and the physical act of printing, without simulated manipulation. Each work presented is shaped by its journey from the rawness of capture to the permanence of ink on paper
