Projects
Full Circle - land art installation - Blackstone Point, River Kent estuary, 29th
September 2007. Part of Fred 07.
A group of 15 volunteer diggers removed an estimated 30 tonnes of wet sand and mud
to allow an 80 metre-long elliptical trench to be filled with floodwater at high
tide. At the subsequent low water, the elliptical trench was filled by the retreating
tide. When seen from the unique viewing point it appeared as a circle of water reflecting
the sky. The trench remained visible through fourteen tides during the week as it
slipped back into the memory of the sand.

Full Circle 2 - installation on the River Kent Estuary of a visible circle of light
on the sand at dusk and into the night until extinguished by the incoming tide. Built
on the same site and scale as Full Circle. Part of FRED 08.

Swimming Home. Open water wild swimming across the lakes and tarns of Cumbria - a
collaborative experiential/performance project. The journey began in the northwest
Lake District and meandered through tarns and lakes until arriving ‘home’ near Kendal
with a social swim of invited members of the local community to join the final swim.
During the course of the journey, sculptures and other works of art were created
according to our principles.
