‘Like geological layers, narratives may embed dissonant fragments of their own textual prehistory that, when discerned, open strange portals.’
– Jeffrey Jerome Cohen

A geo-archaeological study of fragmentation on memory and place, Flood Story is rooted in generational experiences of living on the fastest eroding coastline in Europe, and the ways in which neurological conditions have affected the farming communities I grew up with.

Flood Story began a journey, and has grown into something which underpins a number of branching projects, examining the ways in which we mediate the landscape around us and the conditions of shifting climate patterns on memory as the basis of our individual and collective identities.
