“And so to midnight and into the ebb-time when the spirit slips lightly from sick men and when it’s like no-mans-land between yesterday and tomorrow and material things are loosely integrated and barely tacked together.”

David Jones, In Parenthesis.

Self portrait taken in Mametz Wood

A photographer living and working in Wales, in his series of photographs for Mametz Wood, Rob has taken David Jones’ poetry as a starting point to explore the effects of war on the mind. Rob uses double exposures to both disturb reality and create a strange, surreal landscape that explores the experience of Post Traumatic Stress Disorder, or what was then known as shell shock.
