On this day I was feeling increasingly frustrated with the landscape around me, I was missing the landscape in Wales. The freedom, the ability to climb high and look across the world below me. This was important for me, to be able to recharge my batteries and be re-inspired. Everyday problems seem irrelevant when compared to the vast size of the land.
With this in mind I went for a bike ride in search of this feeling, armed with minimal materials (newspaper, pritstick, scissors and wool), I found a small piece of beach, unspoilt and deserted. Jut what I had been looking for. I could finally relax. I sat and created this newspaper pattern piece. The patterns were inspired by the patterns on the tree bark. The process of repeating this pattern was my way of releasing the frustrations I feel from urbanisation. I experimented with photography, putting the art piece in different places, in a way putting my own imprint on the location.
