SEVEN
Made on the waterways around Cardiff, Seven explores the subject of water pollution. Eva Falk-Drake first uses Direct Positive Photographic Paper loaded into a 5×4 camera to create prints, which she then colourises to match the pH colour of the water, reflecting the pollution level.
NEW LAND
Taken during lockdown, New Land explores Falk-Drake’s local golf course, which shut due to the Covid-19 pandemic, and therefore became accessible to the public for the first time. Falk-Drake uses the T-off points in a game of golf and randomly generated a direction to indicate where the photos would be made. New Land captures how this once private landscape has now been repurposed as a commons space.
