white areas

30 c-prints, 10x15cm
as part of 'CRW-Contemporary Reflections on War' at Academy of Art, Copenhagen

The ordnance survey maps of Portmsouth show many details, yet they also depict spaces without any information: White Areas. I set out to explore these blank regions, and in the course of one autumn I discover military and disused places, vast spaces with a wide sky along the coast, then areas completely boarded up and inaccessible. Contrasts along the south coast of England.

This photographic series formed part of the exhibition 'Contemporary Reflections on War' at BKS Kunstakademiet Copenhagen.
