Lithics | 2025
The Lithics works contrast images of eroding man-made stone (i.e. ‘lithic’) structures in the landscape, devoid of context, with accompanying images that combine Plexiglass layers printed with archival and contemporary material relating to each site. The titles of the works are generated artificially, using AI tools to take a ‘post-anthropic’ forensic cataloguing approach to the original image.
The intention is to contrast the ‘grand initiatives’ that created the original artefacts, typically based on a desire for financial reward or status, with the rapid and continuing decay of both physical and contextual meaning, now further accelerated by the advance of machine learning tools and the loss of human narrative.
Works from the Lithics series have been exhibited in Manchester, Istanbul and Rossendale.
