Show with Verity Birt at Well Projects, Margate, October 2020.
Crossings
Produced during a period of rural isolation in the surrounds of a hostile and remote landscape, ‘Crossings’ traverses the simultaneous feelings of estrangement, connection and intimacy that hide in the uncanny threshold of encounter with a world beyond the human. In ‘Crossings’ the works of Verity Birt and Tom Sewell hold a form of praxis – bringing together an enmeshed collaboration; a journey through the tangled histories of landscape, the entities that inhabit them and a sense of radical permeability as the edges of things dissolve.
