the wild wood
 
winter 2007
Funded by Kirklees Countryside Unit, The Wild Wood took its starting point from The Wind In The Willows, when Mole wanders into the woods and discovers the strange and powerful world of the woodland environment in the dead of winter...

in the woods all the children get lost they meet people sometimes get hurt sometimes magical things happen

owl crumpling bird creaking dragons wind animals water rustling trees

a few layers of ice like stained glass from nature...when the sun was behind, it shone through...i like the central air bubbles, finding the niche in a rotted stump

green ripples rustling gritty squirrels

brown swings talking rough magpie

gold flight grinding warm hole

orange strokes scraping slimey pond
