DRY SEASON…….
This work imagines a moment that feels slightly out of place in the UK landscape. Grasses have dried to brown and the air carries a faint dustiness, as though the land has been held too long in warmth. Everything feels slowed, suspended, shaped by heat rather than growth. Small lives continue within this stillness, alert and watchful, sharing the same charged space. The atmosphere is dense and settled, full but restrained, suggesting a season that does not quite belong here, when the familiar turns unfamiliar and the landscape briefly takes on the qualities of somewhere drier, harsher, and more exposed.
