This was what I had in mind ---erosion of the base of the cliffs:
But how do you represent rising sea levels photographically? Photographing the same spot over a number of years?
I started venturing beyond my local coastal patch around Victor Harbor. The first spot I investigated was the sandstone cliffs at Port Willunga
I had read about their erosion and I revisited them, as I thought that it might make a suitable project for the effects of climate change. Rising sea levels eroding the base of the cliffs was the idea I had in mind.
We pass by this rock on our poodle walks to to Dog Beach and beyond.
I see it in different light conditions.
Another picture from the 5x7 Cambo monorail shoot near Kings Beach, Victor Harbor.
It is a large format version of the 6x6 one in this earlier post. I was thinking more in terms of abstractions and modernism than just rock studies and snap shots. I was starting to reconnect with the art history past. A retro Australian modernism as it were, which referred back to the rock studies made by John Cato in the 1970s.
Cato's abstractions developed the vocabulary of his own inner landscape and can be seen as expressions of his subconscious. I have no interest in this kind of transcendent photography that links back to Kandinsky.
