Jonathan Michael Ray Artist Cornwall — **Overgrowth Undergrowth 05,** 2018, 36 silver gelatine prints (RC gloss) on aluminium88.5×62.5cm,

Come fall, sediment, fossil,
Ruin.

New growth over old.
& the creation of an impression of the land,
Between translucent film.

Unseen connections of nature and the imagination.
Layering moment, object, place, record, feeling
Again
& again
& again.

An age; the sum of all things
One whole digesting its parts,
Until all that’s left is rock and muck,
Death and waste.

Bury
me
with
it.
