Cupar Arts Eden

The sea ice moved slowly as the ferry passed, and from the shore, the solid ice held the silence.

Archipelago Series #I






This is the very first (at the moment) of a  series of 10 images inspired by the archipelagos in the Baltic Sea, between Stockholm, Mariehamn, Turku and Helsinki.

The trip was for my sister's birthday and that happened to be in March. Maybe not the best time to go (locals were a little surprised to see us at that time of the year) but with Brexshit in process we decided to go then.

Therefore the weather wasn't always the best. During the ferry journeys it was often very windy, wet and mostly snowing. Quite glorious in it's own way. Whe we did see the islands in passing they were sometimes almost completely obscured by snow but the ice near their shores was thick and undulating slowly as the boat passed by.



Another two from the Archipelago Series. 

The series is being exhibiting as part of Cupar Arts Eden, an art trail in Cupar, Fife, Scotland.
Cupar Arts is a voluntary community charity. It aims to combine high quality arts events with community involvement focusing around Cupar’s public and natural assets. Really pleased to have been picked to exhibit.
