Situated in the struggle between the greed for riches and love for the natural world, this work centres on humankind’s desire to devastate and destroy for profit. It portrays an oasis of natural beauty, for decades accessible to the public, which has now been sold to a property developer, with public entry forbidden.
Paradise Lost presents a fragmented memory and a sense of loss, by reflecting upon the peacefulness and beauty of nature, vulnerable to the whims of selfish ambition, and the terrible uncertainty of that which is yet to come.
The making of the photographic work was made possible with support from the National Lottery through the Arts Council of Northern Ireland.
For those that are not familiar with the project, TLP Editions is an ongoing collection, produced and designed by PhotoIreland, that presents work by contemporary artists in the form of uncomplicated publications. These are available through The Library Project in-store and online. All and any funds generated by the project go to producing more copies of the publications, ensuring we can keep promoting the artists and practices represented. These editions are regularly showcased and donated to international events and festivals, such as the Icelandic Photography Festival recently. In addition, TLP Editions also grace some important shelves and collections, including that of the Hasselblad Foundation Library and the Martin Parr Foundation.
You can find a list of all the TLP Editions here.
PhotoIreland is kindly supported by the Arts Council of Ireland to develop support projects such as the TLP Editions.
