About this artwork
This print documents the teamwork involved in all aspects of sailing, in particular hoisting the sails. Fully immersed at sea, what it means to be human is made apparent: trust, communication, and teamwork. This profound unity between people and their environment is one I understand first hand, transitioning from a crew trainee to volunteer sea staff over the last five years.
This day was one of fifty days I spent at sea last summer as part of… immersive research for a series of works about UK Sail Training Charities. Home for the week was a Baltic Trader: Queen Galadriel, where through the challenges of offshore sailing, the transformation of eleven young people took place.

- Works on commission
Phoebe Leach, an artist driven by paint materiality and monoprinting, illuminates the intricacies of human perception. Through layers of translucent and opaque paint, she materialises fleeting moments, tethering them to canvas with contrasting intensities. Her techniques conjure realms of memory and identity, inviting viewers into engaging dialogues with their interpretations. Leach's artwork echoes the paradoxical transparency and ambiguity of memory, stirring a profound sense of familiarity and introspection.
