landscape lines exhibition : Lines in the landscape have a fascination, from the Nazcar lines to the Great Wall of China – these momentous delineations of the landscape viewed from above remind us of our love of making marks on this world in a grand scale.
However, unbeknownst to us, we are making marks on a smaller, but no less aesthetic scale, from footprints that trace journeys in soft ground; the emboldened marks and divisions in the landscape that were drawn by tractors, vehicles, planting and the variation of form through the passage of the sun.
These are aerial images taken from my paramotor – the oblique and long shadows causing ephemeral worlds to be created under my feet.
Flying makes these visible – our paths, our patterns, our ways.

Las líneas en el paisaje producen una fascinación. Desde las líneas de Nazca hasta la Gran Muralla China. Estas espectacluares delineaciones del paisaje visto desde el cielo nos recuerdan de nustra inclinación por dejar nuestra marca en el mundo a gran escala.
Sin embargo, sin saberlo estamos dejando nuestra marca en una escal más pequeña aunque no menos estética, desde las huellas de pisadas que dejamos en terrenos blandos hasta las marcas dejadas por tractores, vehículos, cultivos y la variacón de formas debida al paso del sol. Éstas son imágenes aéreas tomadas desde mi paramoto que proyecta las largas y oblicuas sombras que crean efímeros mundos a mis pies
Poder volar hace visibles nuestros senderos, nuestros patrones, nuestros caminos
