Captain Jack's Legacy

This series was inspired by the tin mines and decaying engine houses that remain part of the Cornish landscape. These iconic buildings are a memorial to the industrial past, a way of life for so many people which is now redundant.

 

Whilst they soar upwards into the sky, the oppressive nature of the mines cannot be denied. Woven in paper yarn, rusting wire and metals scraps - these pieces may continue to gently rust and decay over time as do the buildings they represent.
