For the Tributaries Project Pilgrims’
Exhibition, Heather selected six of her
photographs to mount and display in
the intimate setting of a cabinet. Even
the structures of the abandoned
cottage and the austere lighthouse,
set against the deep blue sky, and
indeed the strangely (mis)placed
bone-structure of a sheep’s skull
contribute to the overall mood of
internalisation and stasis from which
the “deep seeing” of aesthetic
contemplation works its magic. Along
with “Lily with Water Drops,” and
“Pebbles” (discussed above), the
paradoxical “water pool” that comes
across as a bed of pebbles, show
aspects or moments of Heather’s
reflective encounters with water.
