Drawing...'2nd Field accumulation'...120cm X 80cm..mixed media on paper..

'2nd Field accumulation' is a piece where I've brought together all the things in the second field of my journey. The edge is enclosed by the structure of the boundary fence on one side and the distant trees on the other work as a barrier, protecting the grave stones beyond, which I've highlighted in the image. The centre area shows the derelict, lifeless buildings once used by pig farmers on the land. Nothing in this field is used anymore for what it was once intended, but each area and building is still full of life. Birds, rabbits, foxes, badgers and other countryside animals rule this space so even though these structures are dead they still serve to protect life in a new way.
I intend to carry on with this style of drawing, building up layers of life and area, and want to produce a series in different locations.
