In this series of drawings, MacLeod explores notions of deep time, the more-than-human, bodily memory, identity, and fidelity to place. Nuanced layers of memory trapped inside her body, adrift and fragmented, finally begin to pour out. Ghostly beings ebb and flow in symbiosis, forming one continuous line. Rocks, minerals, sea salt, lichens and tree sap gathered from specific landscapes in which MacLeod defined herself by, are used to draw and map the beginnings of the process of letting these memories and places go.
Each drawing is 20cm x 20cm and has been drawn on 300gsm Cotton Rag Paper using organic inks made from both the Australian and Scottish landscape.
Shown above are 87 drawings which intend to form one large continuous artwork.
