“So I saw all of these mediocre pictures of that volcano in Iceland nobody can pronounce the name of, so I figured I should go and do better. But the flights to get over took forever as expected (somewhat). 4 days after leaving I finally made it, but the weather was terrible for another 4. Just before leaving it got pretty good for about a day and a half and this is what I managed to get.” _Sean Stiegemeier

“My work is coloured by my own experience, and my family, themselves heavily intertwined in the coal mining tradition of North West England, and its eventual politically engineered demise, which I witnessed through my early adulthood. My Grandmother was a very strong influence on my life and art. Her tales of working in this underworld, even while still carrying my father in the womb, continue to fill me with a fascination.” Vicky Wright.
