Today saw the culmination of my artist in residence marchmonthouse marchmontcreativespaces borders_art_fair in the Borders of Scotland. 
PROEM is a new body of work, comprising photo-artworks, moving image and sound. It reflects ongoing research and recording work, undertaken during my residency at The Tower Studio, Marchmont, during March, 2021, and is ultimately intended as a ‘proem’, or prelude, to a much larger, proposed body of work.
PROEM takes as its original departure point, the idea of mapping Marchmont visually and sonically in the here and now, whilst creating a metaphorical conversation with the the past. In particular, referencing a chain of human stories, whose narrative dimensions have been largely lost or forgotten to history: men, women and children, who toiled across Marchmont’s vast estate, as listed in its Day Labour inventory, for the year 1818. 
This, overlaid with sounds, images and voices, which give signature to the Marchmont of today, ultimately places two realms of disparate time, into an open dialogue with each other. The Tower Studio residency was a joint submission with gillwaltonartist With thanks to Marchmont, Borders Art Fair for their continued support.
