The simple pleasures of running;
Sweating while the sun is going down.
Going off course and running through a field.
The sound of gravel under your feet.
Catching phrases of people you run past.
The slowing of your breath when you finish.
The above is a field recording made whilst running this spring.
Listening the way through this vignette, experience the ebb and flow of a progressive run.
James, running through the aforementioned field.
Through the intersection of my art practice and running endeavours, I’m exploring the documentation of running and on a wider note; movement as a whole.
By leaving out an overly worded description; this newsletter will talk to both my work and journey as a photographer and all that I do in and around running.
Watch me move
I’m listening
I’m watching
I’m reading
Thanks for reading and listening. Remember to stretch and drink plenty of water.
I love the soundscape Ben. Birds; feet; people and the breath. There is a beautiful rhythm to the run and the pounding of feet reminded me of the sounds of my yet to be born grandchild's heart beat. Beautiful. Thanks.
Really enjoyed the newsletter Ben <3
