Viewfinder is a outdoor installation which actively uses the landscape as a functioning component. It is made up of six steel squares gradually increasing in size, coming together to align and form a viewfinder which focuses on the fragile cliffs of Happisburgh on Norfolk coast in the U.K. This stretch of coastline suffers from some of the highest rates of coastal erosion along the British coastline, and so I was inspired to create a work which drew attention to the powerful elemental effects suffered by this coastline which subtracting from it. The work visualises the natural tensions in this interface between man and nature, and is part of a wider project entitled Natural Tensions which focused on installing worksinspired by these themes on various coastlines.
