Anya Gallaccio
“We often have a romantic or sentimental attachment to the sea. Memories of seaside holidays as a child. Ideas of the sublime, wild and unknowable seas. In working with inks made from seaweed, chalk from a crumbling coastline, the ash of a burnt tree, I set a situation with both materials and chance to produce images that are both fantastical imaginary landscapes and a manifestation of the mutability of everything we take as given. To insist on the interconnectedness of it all.”
