“Description of the audio/visual work:

This mixed-media installation will consist of a series of 9 plaster casts that float on steel pedestals and capture some of the patterns and scripts made from the diverse mudflat textures left at low tide. A sequence of oil paintings hang on the wall, depicting an aerial view of a tidal sequence in the same scale and sizes as the casts. These portray the tide slowly coming back in and covering the mudflats. The sequence starts with intricate moiré patterns in shallow water and slowly gets greener, bluer, ending with a panel that shows the opaque surface of deep water.”

A film of the highest tide of the year at Cresswell Quay in Wales, where people gather to watch. It’s fun – beer involved.

This is a fabulous place. A really local pub on Creswell Quay in Pembrokeshire, Wales; in the National Park on the Cresswell River which is part of the tidal ‘Secret Waterway’ that runs through the Park. People gather at the pub to watch the tide.  Some come on boats, the tide blocks the road, kids run about, sometimes a few people play music. The tide comes to full height as it gets dark. The pub, The Cresselly Arms,  is busy!
