This publication offers a rich and expansive visual record of Julie
Brook's artistic practice, and proposes a unique collaboration
between Brook and distinct voices from the nature writing and
craftsmanship traditions. Situating Brook's practice in the context
of critical reflections by Robert Macfarlane, Alexandra Harris and
Raku Jikinyu, the publication presents a striking visual narrative
of Brook's landscape and tidal sculptural work, and a sense of its
timeless yet contemporary resonance. Documenting in depth a number
of recent works made in the Hebrides, Japan and Namibia, their
shared attention to the elements and their key pre-occupations of
the fleeting, mobile forces of light, time, and gravity demonstrate
Brook's coherent vision within vastly contrasting environments.
Throughout her oeuvre, the balance between what Brook makes in
relation to the environment and materials themselves is paramount.
Including film stills, photography and drawing, which are all
integral languages for conceptualising and communicating the work,
plus insightful extracts from Brook's notebooks, this beautiful
publication succeeds in providing the reader with a unique
understanding of the artist's 'monuments to the moment'.
