Spring Chorus

This photo was displayed as part of ‘Cellophane Pie’ a group show in a beautiful building in Basingstoke. I created a musical score with symbols and various sizes of this work, from thumb sized to A4, peaking with a rope attached to a bell, resting in a A6 repetition of this image.  

The inspiration.. I lay amongst the grasses, foxgloves, brambles and wild raspberries. Insects busied and buzzed, curious in the hunt for nectar. I was freshly washed in the river, smelling true to nature. Surely now I could fool a bee that I was a good stink, a flower?
There’s a crazy abundance in July, an orchestra of living. The human brain knows a divide, to not be one with nature, to be an observer or a master. 

Here’s me, a portrait, embodying being in union with nature.
