Amanda Wallwork is an artist and curator based in West Dorset. Her practice is driven by an ongoing enquiry into landscape - a search for a deeper understanding beyond the purely aesthetic. Through drawing, painting, mapping, and installation, her work explores the relationship between human and natural environments, examining how we experience land, the impact we have upon it, and the traces we leave behind.
I am continually drawn to the narrative of place, fascinated by the stories landscapes hold and what can be revealed though investigating the often unseen traces of the past. My work takes a deeper look at the underlying factors that shape our environment - from what can only be seen from above through aerial photography and new remote sensing technology to delving into the secrets beneath our feet and the vast unimaginable timescales of geological deep time.
