Mylor Creek

Here’s a 300-word description that matches the visual spirit you’ve given me — lyrical, rooted in your own affection for the place, and quietly celebratory of the scale of the piece.

Mylor Creek has a way of pulling the eye — and the imagination — ever onward. In this Joiner, the river winds into the distance like a quiet promise, a soft blue ribbon threading its way through fields that seem almost eager to meet it. The light on this stretch of Cornwall, appreciate by artists for decades, has its own kind of theatre: the sky a clean, generous blue; the water catching that same tone and deepening it; the boats quietly resting in the shallows, safe from storms, saving their strength for whatever adventure lies ahead.

I’ve always loved how landscapes carry movement even when nothing appears to be moving. Here, the fields sweep down toward the creek with real momentum, a kind of rushing calm, and the layered structure of the Joiner lets those contours unfold slowly, almost like pages in a book. You feel the distance expand, the horizon breathe, the terrain reveal itself piece by piece.

At over 3 metres wide and almost 2 metres high, this artwork is built to immerse you. The scale isn’t just a technical consideration — it’s part of the experience. Stand before it and the creek seems to open out around you; the blue water settles into your peripheral vision; the far hills stretch into places you can almost imagine walking.

Mylor Creek is familiar and new at the same time, intimate and expansive, a quiet conversation between land, water and light. This Joiner is my attempt to honour that conversation — to hold the stillness, the sweep, the colour, and the quiet invitation of a landscape that rewards anyone willing to linger.

The Unseen collaborator

Every Joiner begins in silence, then finds its structure through its unseen collaborator—music. The tempo sets the pace of assembly; melodies suggest movement and balance. Music shapes the emotional architecture of each piece, guiding where energy builds and where calm returns. To truly experience a Joiner, it should be viewed while listening to the music that shaped it. Only then does the visual rhythm align with the heartbeat, the beat, it was born from.

Each Joiner is created but not yet printed.

This is intentional. Printing every piece in advance would compromise the freedom each collector deserves. By commissioning a Joiner at the moment of purchase, you decide its scale and presence—tailored precisely to your space and vision. Every print is then produced to museum-grade archival standards, ensuring permanence, precision, and exclusivity.
