Making new work in Lockerbie
Last year I traveled to Utøya, Norway. On July 22nd at 17:22 I took a picture of the sky over the Island of Utøya.
Today I am in Lockerbie, Scotland to take a picture of the sky over Lockerbie at 19:02.
These photographs are part of my ongoing project Collected Memory, for which I am making a collection of abstract images of the sky, representing important events from the collective memory.
