The folkscape, is the place I find myself lost in a thicket of significant meaning, where the traces of the activity of people in their endeavours remains, where the friction of lives leave their marks on the landscape and the landscape of things: where the furrows drawn deep remain in the tilt of the soil, where the hollow in a horizon holds a story, where the scale expressed in the husbandry of the land reveals another scale of means, where the proportions chosen express an aesthetic personal, communal or indeed global, where the strata reveals the architecture of social and cultural evolution, where weβre mistaken by our assumptions and caught in the wire of nostalgia, where the landscape simply has the indelible, although at times, the faintest, footprint impressed onto its surface.
The traces I seek are current or historic are seasonal or daily or simply once in time⦠they can at times be something magic lying within the mundane.
