Language of Landscapes - 'Sea Gathering' photograph

Roz Moreton is a visual artist living and working in Carmarthenshire, Wales, UK. 
Her current body of work is an exploration of human interactions, both emotional and physical, with the post-industrial landscape of the former Carmarthen Bay Power Station, a coal-fired power plant on the shore of the Burry Inlet, Afon Llwchwr. 

“In my work I respond to the impact of different ways that humans have been imprinting and scaring the land, and I establish strategies to tell stories of personal experiences in both natural and post-industrial landscapes .” 

Roz’s explorations of ecological sensitivity, erosion, and fragile and marginal habitats are captured through drawing, photography and film, mapping, and natural and woman-made fabrications.
Her work is assembled on location and in her studio; her creative interactions with the land materialise in gardens, coast & shorelines and reclaimed post-industrial landscapes.
Roz’s work encompasses public engagement through leading art experiences, stimulating audiences to re:THINK how they see and interact with their own environment.

“ I encourage audiences to start to move away from “Human vs. Nature”, to appreciate how their own and others’ behaviours affect the biodiversity of our fragile environment.”
