leave no trace
Leave No Trace is a body of work, created for a solo exhibition at Oriel Y Parc, it explores the Pembrokeshire coastline and countryside through the use of raw materials sourced directly from the landscape. Challenging our exploitation of natural resources and exploring the possibilities of our material futures. Focussing on the unexpected yet familiar topography of nature and how it can mirror the patterns and biological structures of the human body.
How can we reframe our relationship with our landscape and our use of its material resources?
