Seasons of the Fallen explores the fluctuations of a familiar landscape as storms roll in and take their victims. The images as inspired by the intuition that trees are self aware or at least beings in some way, an intuition given weight by recent discoveries on the internal life of trees. This is contrasted with the continuous material forms through which they move and ultimately into organic material from which new life begins.
The images were captured over a period of 3 years and over the same period realised in the darkroom using traditional silver gelatin printing and toning techniques. Each one takes a place in a wider narrative of visual meditations on the landscape carried against the tumultuous human backdrop of those years. They together compose a photobook of 73 images.
