Kilburn Cherry
Edition of 100
A handsewn publication inspired by the Japanese tradition of the renku poem and the symbolism of the cherry blossom. The project set in Kilburn, traditionally the home of the Irish emigrant, uses the cherry blossom in different urban landscapes as a metaphor for hopes, dreams and new beginnings.
The 32 photographs work in tandem with award winning poet Don Paterson’s poem, Renku: My last Thirty-Five Deaths.
