Description
'As I walk this tidal path' is based on psychogeographic wanderings around the Thames estuary. Walking from Southeast London to Kent and Essex – through nature and industry – Anna explores her inner topography as well as the unique landscapes in front of her.
The book uses elements of the physical world and Anna’s inner world to create something new, a third space where the two merge. ‘Whilst it is a personal project, I believe it also has universal value,’ she explains. ‘In a time marked by ecological and mental health crises, the search for a deep connection with one’s environment is extremely relevant. Blending the mundane and the surreal, the work is an invitation to immerse oneself in the landscape.’
The book contains black-and-white analogue photographs taken on her walks. Hinting at the experience of finding things on a walk, the viewer of the book encounters a concertina fold-out as well as two loose sheets of tracing paper with text. The book was also produced as a limited artist’s edition with original cyanotypes as covers, hand-stitched with sailing twine (now sold out).
