Artwork Description

Photograph on paper

Signed and numbered with a certificate of authenticity.

Ghost net explores the aesthetics, affect and stories of discarded, lost or stored fishing net, lines and traps on boats, docks and waste dumps. Each is used in different ways, variances intimate to fishermen/women. Each mound’s intimate folds tells the story of manual labour, produce caught, distance travelled and destinations of vessels.

This work is from the series Furious Devotion, a series documenting farming, rural life and sites of pilgrimage.

Image comes with additional white border suitable for different types of framing and mounting. I can provide advice on framing this work to suit your home, the work itself, or your wider collection.
