Rachel and her son on their small holding on the edge of Dartmoor in the apple orchard., Historically many farm labourers were low paid women and children. I wanted to photograph figures with the forks to animate them , the mother and child in particular.
Waterjet cut steel, ashwood and earth installation commissioned by Craftspace and The National Trust, Gather-ing showcases contemporary craft: makers, skills, materials and thinking in the context of ‘Momentum’ for SomersetArt Weeks Festival 2015. Artists Stewart Easton, Jacky Oliver, Helen Snell, Gillian Widden have been commissioned to create new work in a Tythe Barn at Stoke-sub-Hamdon Priory (venue 35). The resulting project, Gather-ing seeks to inspire and challenge audiences, and raise the quality of craft made and seen in Somerset. By engaging craft practitioners with a track record of excellence and ability, SAW aims to commission creative, imaginative and innovative responses to the site and brief.
