The coast is a place of constant exchange, where land and sea meet in a delicate and ever-changing balance. In the Azores, Kindred Tides explores the relationship between mankind and the natural world, reflecting on the ways our presence leaves its mark upon the coastline.

Through fractured surfaces, restless waves and barriers between land and water, these images consider the tension between our desire to control the natural world and the forces that remain beyond our reach. The coast becomes both a witness to human intervention and a reminder of nature’s enduring power to reshape what we leave behind.

Kindred Tides invites us to reconsider our place within this environment, asking whether we are separate from the natural world or intrinsically bound to it. Like the tides themselves, our relationship with the coast is one of continual change — a connection shaped by both our influence and our vulnerability.
