Marine scroll I ("Fundsachen")

A narrative about marine life, found objects and strange encounters of liminality, this 15 meter long scroll of drawings on lining paper was begun in Autumn 2013 and completed in May 2014. Walks along the shore, collecting of shells, algae and man-made debris and plastics (one of the main marine polluters of our age), have informed a still life approach of documentation, interspersed with research into marine life from museum (Coelacanth) and scientific literature. The resultant drawings are woven into each other, to create a network of relationships. As the overall drawing is too large to represent here I have split the scroll into 8 consecutive sections - 1-4 here, 5-8 in new image folder.
