Spring Retrospective

A metaphor for a connection to the natural world, where the allegorical and physical are constantly entwined

DRIFT JOURNAL

Issue 44

The relationship between ourselves and nature is one of both intimacy and conflict. We can find ourselves existing between the human and the natural, between the fixed and the fluid, between the story and the narrative. Our connection to the natural world is both instinctive and uneasy, shaped by cycles of belonging and separation. Stone is chiselled, clay moulded, metal cast; yet time and the elements alter even the most enduring forms. Art, like nature, is never static; it invites decay, weathering, and reinterpretation – resisting conclusion. As each narrative unfolds it is shaped by perception, memory and time. Through words, images, and forms, we explore these tensions – how we inhabit landscapes, how they inhabit us and how artistic practice is a process of navigation rather than arrival.
