50yrs of observations, polymath, art critic & pioneer of environmentalism, John Ruskin foresaw a problem.

Embracing a multidisciplinary practice, incorporating b&w photography taken from a single window, overlaid with pictures of paintings in the tradition of the Pictorialist Movement into a single body of work.

Ruskin warned of the approaching "Storm clouds", of Man poisoning the land, sky, a premonition of a decaying world.

By combining these two aesthetics, confusing & challenging viewers to see beyond the objective, the obvious, to arrive at a dystopian subjective landscape.
