Paul Hart’s new series is a personal reflection on nature and was made in the landscape close to his home in England. The aesthetic is rooted in the notion of a heightened awareness of the natural world, of both a physical engagement and spiritual connection to the land. Whilst becoming absorbed in this instinctual, visceral approach, Hart has become acutely aware of both the physical beauty and delicate vulnerability of these natural forms. Although concerns of the environment and sustainability are present throughout, FRAGILE departs from the central study of place usually associated with his work, to evoke a more abstract ethereal sensibility.
In keeping with Hart’s longstanding practice to work in analogue, FRAGILE is made on medium format film cameras and printed by Hart as gelatin silver prints.
