Tidal Script - Monochrome patterns in wet sand

from $450.00

Tidal Script #8108

“Made at Bar Beach on the New South Wales coast, this photograph records the shoreline in a brief interval between waves. As the tide recedes, wet sand holds the trace of the ocean’s movement—compressed, stretched, and shaped by the pull of the sea.

A slit of low light skims across a sliver of the surface, revealing subtle ridges and channels that echo the rhythm of the surf beyond the frame. Within this narrow band between land and water, texture replaces horizon, and the familiar coastline dissolves into abstraction.

Like my ocean pool works, the image exists at a threshold—where motion slows, time softens, and the sea leaves its quiet imprint before returning again.”

Every picture I have made encapsulates the essence of my story. Each piece is unique, whether in intricate details, obscure abstracts, or expansive vistas. The artistry in my archival, museum-quality prints is crafted to evoke emotion and capture moments in time.

This Limited Edition is available in three sizes. It includes a maximum of five prints plus up to two Artist Proofs.

‘I make photographs to hang on walls and be appreciated for lifetimes. The soft texture of these bright white papers is integral to how I want you to see and ‘feel’ my work.’

Foley Fine Art Prints are supplied with a signed Certificate of Authenticity. They are expertly crafted to ensure archival quality on Ilford Prestige Galerie Smooth Cotton Rag or Hahnemühle Photo Rag heavyweight paper. The paper size allows for a 20mm white border, but as I treat each scene individually, different pictures may have bespoke crop or form factors. Australia-wide delivery is free via trackable courier, fully insured for damages. Please allow 14-21 days for production and delivery. For Australia-based clients, framing options include dry-mounting your giclée print to an acid-free 5mm foam board with an archival adhesive film. This is then placed in a hand-crafted shadowbox frame made from FSC-certified Australian timber, protected by durable 3mm museum-grade plexiglass. The frame is finished with framer’s tape and stainless steel hanging wire. You can purchase securely with Stripe, PayPal, Apple Pay, and Afterpay.
