Living Coast / Arfordir Byw
'Y Llywiwr'
Beach Sculptures (Details)
Steve Coel

The Living Coast+Arfordir Byw sequence of Photographic Prints are always around the studio and are a frequent gallery request. I like this very much because of all the memories of the wonderful people and places they remind me of. 
I have written often that many of the communities visited in the making of these images are becoming increasingly empty and possibly sad places.
I also note that community action has picked up in recent years...at some point younger people will ask loudly enough why they have to leave in order to succeed. Trick is to get heard.
For me these images have created conversations...Steve Coel

The Right Shadows (2025)

I'm usually never really sure when new projects start as more often or not I'm already working on other things at the same time.
The Right Shadows (2025) is therefore different for me.
I'm now focusing on this singular umbrella title, and attempting to align, all my output towards the developing thing...whatever that is...
I recently noted that the studio space I currently use contains a large record/archive of previous projects and so they occasionally bleend into each other. Bits and pieces of image, word, and sound...

The Right Shadows (2025) will create the usual folio boxes that I favour and gallery rotations, but I'm also searching for something more too...sculpture work has briefly featured in previous projects so maybe that will feature again at some point...

Improvising in the studio. Books, sketches...loud music.
Distractions leading into spontaneous creation.
All the usual culprits!
Oh, and meeting with and listening to and learning from, some really inspirational creative people.
