Walks with Tatí
My contribution “Walks with Tatí” is the title of a series handmade folding booklets. There are 12 booklets, each booklet contains 10 photographs of a walk made with my dog Tatí in the year 2021. I photographed walks along the river Bouble in the Allier, France and along the Eastern Scheldt, on the island Schouwen – Duiveland in Sealand, the Netherlands.
Windward!
The weekend of the storm Eunice, Februay 2022, my mum made this photo at Viane, one of our favourite places to watch the Eastern Scheldt.
I have photographed The Eastern Scheldt for many years and am delighted to include a selection of photographs in the volume “Walks with Tatí”.

“Raccontami di te” is a project by Stefania Balestri. All artists were asked by Stefania to send her a favourite piece of work, in tissue, for her book “Raccontami di te”. I choose to show a part of the work used in the performance Waiting in 1999, Swan embroideries on cotton.
