Pick of the Day - ‘Countryside’ by Andy Sewell
Tuesday, September 14th, 2010

‘Countryside’ is a project in progress.
From the photographer: “These photographs, from a work still in progress, are taken in the English countryside. I choose a place, sometimes for a specific reason, but more often guided by the poetics of village names (Cold Christmas, Nasty, Little Gidding, Good Easter…) and explore from there. Driving and walking I search for pictures that speak of this iconic yet hard to define thing “The Countryside” and the interplay of the ideas and feelings evoked by it: tradition and modernity, nostalgia, our relationship with nature and to what we eat, the underlying cycle of seasons and festivals.
“The finished project will be a journey from one winter to another formed of the encounters between the countryside of my imagination and contemporary rural England.”

At the Gala Awards ceremony honours will also be given for Lifetime Achievement, distinguishing some of the world’s greatest men and women whose life’s work in fashion, photojournalism, advertising and fine art merit the highest acclaim by their peers. The winner of the International Photographer of the Year will also receive a ‘Lucie’.
‘Sprung’ was featured as a Pick of the Day on the Nova blog in October last year.
