New Works for Rocky Mount

I have been really excited to work on this new work. Conceived in December 2010, I've just realized some pieces that take in my love of water, seaweed/coral, cyanotypes, beach, history and process. This work is made in memorium. It is made for those persons whose anscestors lie in the middle passage. A burial ground lies between England and Barbados and this is known as the Middle Passage. There are some 2 million people who never made the journey after being captured and then placed on a boat bound from Africa to Barbados. As slaves in appalling inhumane conditions, millions died on the journey.  

The new works, waterlogged, consist of cyantoypes/photograms of coral and seaweed found on the beach at Foul Bay, Barbados.
