Same Ocean

Gallery Pejean — August 15 to September 15, 2018

My imagery is sourced from water and coastal landforms that I’ve photographed at a number of locations around Tasmania and also from the shorelines of San Francisco.  Although these coastlines are half a world apart they are interconnected by the same vast ocean.  Warm and cool currents circulate across the oceans of the world; the climate shifts, sea levels rise and wave action does the work of erosion, changing the landscape over millennia or overnight. A rock under the Golden Gate Bridge is subject to the same forces of weather and waves as the sea stacks of the Tasman Peninsula. 

Coastlines, formations both natural and man-made, the line, the edge, the horizon, the constant movement of wind and water, abstraction in a reflection; these are common base elements. The viewpoint shifts from gazing out to sea at a distant horizon to close and enveloping images of water, the flotsam and jetsam of experience.
