‘The Very Fire They Sit Beside’
EuropeCoal is the biggest contributor to anthropogenic climate change and the current climate crisis.
In Europe, many countries still heavily rely on coal for their energy needs, with over
250 coal fired power plants spread across the continent.
Germany, often seen as the green leader in Europe, still relies on coal for a third of it’s sizeable energy needs.
Seven of the top ten single carbon emitters in Europe are German coal fired power plants.
Bełchatów, in Poland, is the world’s largest brown coal fired power plant.
It alone produces carbon emissions in excess of New Zealand.
In the Balkans, new Chinese funded coal power plants are under construction.
For Europe to help the world reach the Paris Climate Agreement’s targets
and limit global warming to under 2 degrees there is clearly a lot of work to be done...
Shot in collaboration with environmental law charity Client Earth,
this ongoing work* documents the continued presence of coal in Europe
and the impact it has on the people who live and work beside it.
* due to the Covid-19 outbreak this project is paused and the exhition date
postponed indefinitely

‘Crane’
Falköping, Sweden“A quiet walk in the gently rolling hills of the Vast Goth Land, along the shore of Lake Hornborgasjön
becomes first an opportunity for a wry study, then a gentle lyric on normal human oddity,
then a play on the observer observed and ultimately a narrative about form and space.”
