You can trust in pioneer plants
Salvaged polythene sheet, ink, and plants-not-weeds. March 2022.
Commission for Positive Images Festival, Ecofriendly Images and Words, Litten Tree Building, Coventry, March - April 2022
I wanted my work to reflect other species that make their home in human-designed urban spaces and on the temporaryness of those spaces. It is derived from research into other lives in Bull Yard, the square next to the Litten Tree Building which is home to some of the brutalist architecture and mid-century art that Coventry is famous for, and will also be subject to destruction from planned developments. I picked up the litter at the same time as photographing.
Just to the left of the window you can see behind my work is a water tank that several pigeons roost by. They used to live in this space before it was adapted.
