I made this video in response to the work I was doing for my college elective, Creative Campus.
This was a site specific elective for which I choose to engage with the history of the Swiftbrook Paper Mills in Saggart, Co. Dublin. In light of the degradation of the paper making industry and the ruin of the site itself, I aimed to create something that would emulate this process of decay and disuse. Using three dimensional paper casting techniques my work provokes engagement with the residual form of the site utilizing the very media it once produced.
This video documents the process of paper-making, provides a visual link between the creation of my work and its connection to the landscape, and overall pays homage to the Swiftbrook Paper Mills which inspired and led this project.

I fell in love with taking pictures, with wandering around finding things. To me it feels like a kind of performance. The picture is a document of that performance.” Alec Soth
