Crow Cage

This is another work in the ongoing 'Covid Blue' series that are being made under (and for some time after) lockdown and isolation in South Somerset. Alongside prints/paintings on other formats, this is one of a run of roughly A4 sized print/paintings that are cyanotypes, many of which are painted with pigment such as lapis lazuli or watercolour. . They relate to the ongoing situation of Covid 19 and the immediate environment. This is based upon encountering a poor bird in a Larsen Trap on the edge of farmland during a walk in South Somerset.
