This project will be an homage to Anna Atkin.

Anna’s self-published her detailed and meticulous botanical images using the cyanotype photographic process in her 1843 book, Photographs of British Algae: Cyanotype Impressions. With a limited number of copies, it was the first book ever to be printed and illustrated by photography.

I am working on a fictional visual conversation with Mrs Atkins regarding the environment we live in, she in the 19^th century and me in the 21^st century,

The differences in biodiversity and climate.

How has the biotope changed? Etc.
