Lakes to the Highlands
300 mile walk from the English Lakes to the Scottish Highlands,
researching land ownership and the Right to Roam
researching land ownership and the Right to Roam
I walked three hundred miles and wild camped beneath the stars, whilst researching: land ownership and access - discovering contemporary land based projects,
alongside historical poets and land activists who had walked these paths before me.
A Poetic Response
A series of poems and videos, documenting my journey, responding to my research and experiences:
During the journey I adapted to a new lifestyle, carrying everything I needed to survive and to create work on my back. It challenged me both physically and mentally, whilst giving me an elemental connection to the land.
