Lost in the sands of time is a work about the succession of time on human and geological scales at the interface where the two meet. The Irvine Beach Park, in North Ayrshire, Scotland, is the setting for time unfolding. A nostalgic coastal destination that has many users and uses. Where the sea and natural dune habitat intersects the human landscape. A place of industry, recreation and escape. A place where time erodes the landscape and brings life and loss. Following various successions in time and geography, this series explores this landscape where time both stands still and moves on.
