During my visits to the Cruachan Power Station and the expansion site at Coire Glas Loch Lochy in Scotland, I immersed myself in the raw, kinetic energy of these landscapes. By collecting water from Lochs and capturing its dynamic movement through my lens, I produced a series of blue abstract images that convey the fluid, ever-changing essence of water. These abstractions are not just visual representations but evoke the inherent vitality and force that water embodies.
Complementing these abstract pieces are panoramic images of the Coire Glas landscape, offering a broader perspective on the environment that houses these powerful hydropower stations. The sweeping vistas serve as a reminder of the harmonious coexistence between nature and technology, highlighting the serene beauty of the Scottish Highlands.
My journey then took me to Wales, where I explored the Dinorwig Power Station, known as the Electric Mountain. Here, I continued my exploration of hydropower, capturing the striking Welsh landscape and creating panoramic images that emphasize the grandeur and significance of this site.
Uisge Beatha - Water of Life is more than a visual project; it is a narrative that connects the viewer with the natural world and its sustainable energy solutions. Through positive and inspiring imagery, I aim to foster a deeper environmental connection and promote the importance of hydropower as a clean, renewable energy source. This project is a call to appreciate and protect our water sources, acknowledging their critical role in sustaining life and powering our future.
