Andy Sewell, The Heath

I’ve come across some wonderful landscape photography from the UK lately; so much so that I’ve decided to do a week of posts featuring some of the work I’ve found. I’ll kick things off with Andy Sewell, who was recommended to me by Phil Underdown. Sewell’s latest work is called The Heath, a look at a fragment of parkland in London taken over the course of five years.

Like many of the UK photographers I’ve been enjoying recently, Sewell’s work exhibits a wonderful sense of place. The photographs are not so much a record of the views within the park as they are a look at the park and how it exists within the world. The views are an important element of the work, of course, but equally important are the signals of use that are found in the images.

The Heath will be released as a book in the near future, you can learn more and find out how to pre-order a special edition here.
