This work was made in response to Fermyn Woods Contemporay Art Gallery.

I am part of a group of artists called X6 and we had the opportunity to exhibit at that fantastic rural art gallery. The idea was that we had to create something in response to the place or the work that was being  exhibited there at that time.

This was the last time that the building was going to be used as a gallery.

My response to the place was the flowers and plants I could see from the studio window of the gallery, the paper I used was paper that was left behind in the bins of the studio by children which they had used for art workshops in the past. The paper had marks and scratches.

One of the artists exhibiting there was an amazing photographer/artist called Claudia Fährenkemper, her work inspired me to use the method of pressing herbs onto paper.
