Shifting Tides

Shifting Tides was an Access 10 exhibition. My piece focused on our local beaches and tides with a sound recording taken from a session with Bill Colman who had worked from the shores and local harbour all his life. The short excerpts were played on a loop and told yarns of events that had happened due to particular tide and weather conditions mostly in the 1950's and 60's. when most of the boats were still under sail.
It was site specific. As the curator had decided to place the prints apart from the main instalation I used the floor surface to connect these two spaces using tape.
I also produced an information brochure to go with the installation that used information collected from various organisations and different leaflets.
