For my Living Levels work, I chose to focus on a documentary project capturing the creation of three sculptures that were going to be placed in different locations on the Levels.
Although I was due to follow the process of all three sculptures, due to changes in timings and then the arrival of Covid-19, the majority of my work focuses on the willow sculpture. I primarily photographed at workshop events and at the artist's studio. I also managed a full session at the woodcarvers workshops. My aim is still to complete the project with photographs of the sculptures once they are in situ.
Working for the RSPB was a good experience as it gave me an opportunity to photograph people, processes and the environment, all of which will be invaluable experience for the future.
