Ilford HP5
h: 30 w: 45 (cms).
I use 35mm and medium format black and white film. For me, the process of film photography, rather than its digital counterpart, continues a long human practice that records and captures subjects through the permanent alteration of one substance or another.
The work in EXPOSURE has focused on images of the land and the sea, but also Nature’s re-casting of forgotten or abandonned human creations.

Giclée Print Hahnemuhle Matte FineArt Paper
h: 68 w: 47 d: 1 (cms).
Untitled (Bonnie Truth) – verso signed, dated and numbered
Nature has been taken over by the waste of mankind – plastic pollution is a threat to the environment.
Photography is Stephan’s language. He uses the camera to address his concerns about plastic in our oceans.
Using a special photographical technique, he creates attractive images to stimulate an emotional response.
The pleasant first impression of the foggy photographs taken along the Hebridean shorelines turns into a more worrying view of the plastic rubbish shown.
Finally, he points to the fact that plastic waste has taken possession of nature. It is literally everywhere. Raising awareness for a problem also means not giving up.

Lewisian gneiss
h: 18 w: 36 d: 28 (cms).
Human intervention, natural erosion and geology.
Lewisian gneiss is a type of metamorphic rock found here in the Outer Hebrides. It is is formed by high-temperature and high-pressure metamorphic processes acting on formations composed of igneous rocks.
It's difficult to comprehend the timescales involved that have brought these sculptures to their current metamorphic forms. The sculptor's intervention is minutiae, compared with the natural errosion over several hundreds of years and even that pales into insignificance when you compare the 2.7 billion years of geology that has metomophosed these rocks.

Lewisian gneiss on pine table
h: 90 w: 150 d: 80 (cms).
'The Beasts of Holm' is a commemoration or remembrance that focuses on the impact that the HMY Iolaire tradegy of 1 January 1919 had on Lewis families. Families who where waiting in deep anticipation of the return of the sailors and soldiers after four long years of fighting. The wives, parents, sons, daughters brothers, sisters, girlfriends and a whole community joined together by collective relief that these men, who had survived against the odds, were coming home.
The sense of celebration was even more keenly felt, because they would be returning and would be reunited on the morning of the New Year - a New Year of peace that meant healing and new beginnings, meals were prepared and the traditional kitchen table was laid in anticipation.
Around 2.30am that night, with the lights of Stornoway Harbour in sight and just yards from home, the Iolaire struck the rocks known as the Beasts of Holm. The sea, as it so often does in poor conditions, acted swiftly and callously, changing the table of celebration to a table of silence.

h: 114 w: 114 (cms).
On mothers day we were saddened to discover this 50ft Fin Whale washed up on Cliff Beach. Due to COVID restrictions a post mortum could not be carried out to establish the cause of death. It is thought that the whale died out at sea, possibly from a virus or natural causes, maybe with some elements of consumed plastics in his system.
The rocks supported the huge body of this magnificent mammal, sympathetically cradling its remains. The throats grooves were gathered and folding like a striped piece of linen and part of the baleen sack was floating free of its bashed mouth and broken jaw.
Each year 100,000 marine mammals, whales, dolphins, porpoises, seals and sea lions globally die a result of plastic pollution, often from waste equipment of the fishing industry.

Charcoal and Graphite on Paper
h: 90 w: 90 (cms).
The loch with the black sands is located at Gallen Head, Uig Isle of Lewis, which is the most North Westerly point of the UK. It was occupied by the Ministry of Defence during the Cold War. A Modula 80 Radar once stood there to observe the coast line, which must have felt enormously imposing standing high on the headland. I have reflected in the loch how the radar would have appeared in that threatening era of our history.

h: 90 w: 90 (cms).
Conservation of the upper peat moorlands is a prominant subject within my work. A healthy peatland has many rolls, carbon sinks, retaining water, preventing lower level flooding, filling reservoirs for mankinds lifestyles and a prtective natural habitat for wildlife. The maintenance of sphagnum moss and heather is crutial to conserving these very special environments, as their annual decay and regrowth creates the molch that slowly builds the depth of peat, creating a growth of just 1mm each year, therefore a meter of peat has taken 1000 years to develop. If the heather grows too long the wind will burn it, thus killing that individual plant, hence the need for maintenance.

'Bunker' is drawn from the dissused MOD base at Gallen Head, Uig, Isle of Lewis. There is a distinct sense of haunting abandonment on this remote, wild headland. The concrete structures appear stark and abrupt, juxtaposed amidst all the scattered surrounding colours and textures of the ancient Igneous Gneiss rock of the Island.

The collage/construction pieces produced for the ‘Plastic’ exhibition all incorporate objects found on the beach at Cliff. The beautifully formed pieces of driftwood washed up on the beach are a wonderful find and are great to use in the garden, sadly though, amongst the driftwood, more and more plastic is also appearing. Whilst the constructions aim to highlight the increasing abundance of plastic starting to pollute the sea and our beaches they also aim to work on a purely aesthetic/abstract level, in terms of colour, surface, structure, edges and space. The strong plastic colours help create powerful spatial contrasts, and the layers of richly painted wood form strong coastal landscape associations. Elements such as an old shoe inner sole suggests mans ‘footprint’ and unnatural influence on the balance of nature.
