Made during Asylum Studios residency. @asylumstudi Made during Asylum Studios residency. @asylumstudiosuk Walks on Shingle Street and Felixstowe Port, the edge of England and the edge of Suffolk. Every bodily receptor fizzing with information - crunchy pebbles, desert like plants, bright coloured containers piled up like castles.  Another great day.

Image1: Watercolour, biro, threads, ink on stone paper. 
Image 2: Shingle Street - plant form with (Napoleonic?) fort in the distance.
Image3: Felixstowe - plant form.
Image 4: containers at Felixstowe Port
