Sweyne's Eye ~ Marina Shed Doors
My last pics I will share from Sweyne's Eye ~ 2014-15. The pic is of shed doors down in Swansea Marina. Of you would like to see more of the images, you can purchase the photography zine here.
This artwork features on the doors of a boat shed in Swansea Marina, and uses the symbolism of doors to represents the passage from one state to another. The marble door handles have been crafted into the shape of a boat to carry travellers through these states, whilst a huge guardian eye keeps a protective watch over those who undertake the voyage. Beneath the boat, and threatened by a single graphic harpoon, ocean lifeforms gather.... The work was designed by Robert Conybear and Robin Campbell.

My employer has sent everyone with medical issues home until further notice. I have decided to keep my mind occupied by making an early start on the next issue of my Sweyne's Eye zine.
