ILLUMINATIONS AT THRELKELD
a photographic interaction with Walter Benjamin’s book Illuminations and the historic Threlkeld mine
A photographic interaction with Illuminations by Walter Benjamin. Passages from the book are quoted, and then faced with my images of the historic Threlkeld mine in the UK.
At Threlkeld today, machinery has been crafted by rust and nature, a dialectic of human and natural processes. My photographs and Benjamin’s quotes are both musings on the past.
