Means of Escape

Means of Escape is a response to relocating to West Wales and setting up a market garden where a simpler and more honest life might be lived, satisfying our basic human needs. The images are a sensory rather than documentary reaction to the experience of beginning a new life in an empty field.

Julian McKenny is a lens based artist who studied Fine Art and has an MA in Photography from De Montfort University. For the last seven years he and his partner have established and run a market garden based on Permaculture principles in Blaenffos, Pembrokeshire, selling produce from the farm gate. Currently they are constructing a straw bale house and this development forms the core of recent and ongoing photographic work in the project Self:Build:Self, one of several projects exploring the land and their relation to it under the overall title of About A Place. w: www.processional.co.uk e: freshvegpembs@outlook.com p: 01239 841 277 fb: Freshveg Blaenffos Address: Blaenffos Market Garden, Tyddyn Irlas, Blaenffos, Boncath, Pembrokeshire SA37 0HU
