Moving between different geographical locations, points in time, and subjective positions,the text operates both as a source ofinformation about Thereza and her life as well as a distraction away from it. Rickett combines photographs taken at locations associated with Thereza’s life with film stills and images sourced from internet searches; photographic representation oscillating between abstraction, pictorialism and illustrative literalism. The Curious Moaning of Kenfig Burrows explores the relationship between landscape and photography, particularly the mobilization of each as an aesthetic resource as well as a physical one, and the various cultural, political and practical use to which they can be put.
Inspired by the life andwork of Victorian astronomer and photographer Thereza Dillwyn Llewelyn, and her father, John.
