The culmination of our work during The Margate School, Art, Society, Nature: Photography Residency 2021 will be exhibited at the school in Margate from the 12th-18th June.
Our images examine the parallels between floating in the ocean and Earth moving through our solar system. The work is contemplative in nature, as we investigate the giant landscape of the sea-life and plant-life that lives in Walpole Bay, removing our human-centric scale, to the glittering dark skies of Margate. We invite the viewer to imagine how we fit into our ecosystem and how our ecosystem fits into the cosmos. This work explores the fragile nature of our coastal area and shows the connection between all of us, as we stand and gaze over the horizon, or out towards our galaxy.
