Charles March: WOOD LAND
The swirling, abstracted photographs in WOOD LAND, on view from January 21st through February 7th, mark a continuation of the themes and styles established with Nature Translated. Edward Lucie-Smith says, 鈥淚n terms of style, this group of photographs has moved on, and loosened the bonds with the idea of direct representation. Nevertheless, at some half-hidden level, the power of nature still resonates within them. They evoke the times when you step into a landscape, and it makes you hold your breath. This reverence for nature is one of the things that British and American cultures have in common鈥�. As March explains, 鈥淚 have always tried to do something to get myself between the camera and the subject 鈥� adding an emotional mystery, a personal interpretation of a feeling for a landscape or a place. These pictures offer an image of a sensibility at grips with the real, where nothing is as yet completely concluded and everything is still in motion.鈥�
