In relation to my dissertation topic delving into the works and artistic profiles of Hamish Fulton and Richard Long, my process is something that I am questioning and looking into. Hamish Fulton and Richard Long are very process driven and their work is produced in a very physical way, this is because of the involvement they have with the landscape.
Thinking deeply into process and ways of working I recently set out on a walk to Holly-wells, the local park. I took my camera to record a memory of what I was experiencing in the flesh. This was a personal journey and taking a picture when I chose to was my physical involvement with the landscape. (Similar to my inspiration).
My photos from the park seemed to have a varied theme. I have photos displaying both close up textured detail as well as finding myself stepping back and looking at the landscape as a whole. I am going to take the images into my studio and play around to see what approach is going to work well for me. I am also going to make repetitive trips to the park and different times at day to focus strongly on the light and effect the day time appears to have on the landscape.
