Humans have inhabited the shores of Great Britain for over 800,000 years, long before the land that we walk upon was recognisable in it's current form as we were still attached to mainland Europe. The island of Great Britain became isolated at the end of the last Glacial period, approximately 12,000 years ago, when the geology around us finally began to settle as glaciers melted to form valleys and regions that were divided by rivers such as the lower river Severn that initially divided England from Wales. Britain boasts a diverse geology amongst it's regions, with the Southern reaches host to the softer rock formations of the South Downs, Jurassic Coast & Cotswolds. Typically the further north you reach the more mountainous and inclamate the weather becomes, from the Slate rich Snowdonia through the vast Lake District and the Scottish highlands.
As humans have progressed through to the 21st century of course we have adapted the land for our needs and for this module we are required to record examples of this effect on the land as a narrative with an intent to output prints and put up an exhibition. Choices of composition, exposure & message will all come together to provide information for the viewer.
