A photographic survey of remote island formations off the west coast of Scotland. Shot over three seasons, the work interrogates ideas of isolation and the threshold between land and sea. — The project draws on hydrographic survey maps and archival coastguard records, layering documentary impulse with an interest in the sublime. Each image was made on 35mm film and printed as large-format C-prints.A photographic survey of remote island formations off the west coast of Scotland.
