All welcome

Entry is free. www.the.ropewalk.co.uk
The watercolour paintings all painted outdoors in situ, capture the scenes of the fishing phenomenon called the Chakara and the fragile beauty of village life along the Malabar Coast.The early paintings, show a buoyant thriving fishing community, which had been unchanged for centuries. Recently a huge sea defence wall, 300 km. long has been built along this Kerala coast and the Chakara event documented in these paintings has been lost.
I have made a unique documentation of a way of life devastated as a result of this 239 mile long sea-defence wall along the coast of Kerala, South India. The study above is one of hundreds painted over a period of 20 years, a stark reminder of the effects of climate change around the world.
