Artist statement

Aisling Edwards is a British Fine Artist who produces a combination of sculptural interventions and observed landscapes as she contemplates the relationship between humankind and the natural world. Drawing on social interactions with the modern landscape, her photographs record the effects of human impact on our environment. Edwards’ landscape arts are an outcome of her interaction and temporary interventions within the land. Her photographs act as site recordings, preserving into the future evidence that these spaces once were. Edwards considers an intervention to be a temporary adjustment, not permanently impacting on the topographies. For her, permanence is achieved by documenting these sculptural interventions, preserving them into the future as evidence that they once existed within this space. Edwards’ landscape art acts as a reminder of the long history of humankind’s relationship with the landscape.
