TOWPATH

Towpath follows a walk along England’s longest canal, The Grand Union. The journey begins at the River Thames in London, before following the Regent’s Canal west and then heading north on the Grand Union to Birmingham via Slough, Wendover and Aylesbury. As the waterway meandered through Industrial landscapes, passed behind abandoned factories and underneath motorways, the water inhabited a strange borderland between city and countryside, the past and the present. The resulting images are a portrait of a post industrial landscape in the process of redefining itself, and a meditation on the transient nature of our surroundings.
