MEMORY/LANDSCAPE I

Travelling the coastline of the Aomori Prefecture (Japan) via rapid train in Winter, 2023, I photographed the passing seascape through the train windows. In the weeks that followed the trip, I began to question what psychological landscapes were created from the experience. This new series ‘Memory/Landscape I’, through digital processing marks - and unlocks - the intersection of personal memory with the captured image. This work seeks to celebrate the remoteness and beauty of this World Heritage listed site, while recognising the environmental vulnerability of this geographical location due to such phenomena as climate change.
