Shot in Portsmouth by the sea, this series explores the city as a place of edges: between land and water, permanence and disappearance, record and dream. Familiar coastal structures, seafront buildings, monuments, beach huts and harbour vessels are reimagined through paper negatives and lith printing, giving them the quality of found objects or unearthed fragments.
The images resist sharp documentary certainty. Instead, Portsmouth appears as a remembered coastline, a city seen through salt, weather and time. The sea is present even when it is not visible, in the faded surfaces, the bleached tones and the sense that every structure is temporary when placed against water and sky.
