Norfolk coast on Harinezumi.

I recently spent four days walking the north Norfolk coast and along the way i documented the surrounding landscapes. Other than being spectacularly beautiful it was also wonderfully untouched and wild, the vast expansions of wilderness felt timeless and shockingly different to anything one usually experiences. I used an old film camera to photograph the walk as well as a Japanese device a Harinezumi, this tiny digital camera  mimics the aesthetics of a super 8 through the gritty quality and sepia tones. 

Encapsulating my ideals of rural idyll  with the wild landscapes and look back in time to the untouched land, using the Harinezumi only emphasized this and even recreated the old photographs which i collect and use for my paintings.
