from Travelling the wonderful loneliness 2019-2024
(In Memory of the forty three people who died as a result of the tragic accident at Moorgate Underground Station on the 28th February 1975)
Urban wandering, or travel as Hadjicostis writes, “more than any other activity
cultivates the art of asking questions.“1
During 2019 I took a photographic journey through Europe. The trip was an ascetic experience, hardly talking to anyone for 2 months, immersed in photography, taking almost 10,000 photographs on three digital cameras. I have whittled these photographs down to around 120 images in four sequences.
This sequence, Tell Me Why, is one of the four sequences in the series collectively titled Travelling the wonderful loneliness (2019-2024).
Other sequences in the series include (How I) Wish You Were Here; Material Witness; and Dark Light (all 2019-2024).
