Charcoal Text 1 is a part of a series produced for the publication Halse for hazel, a sequence of poems about trees, their languages and forms by Frances Preslsy. The collaboration took place during the final year of Presley’s project funded by the Arts Council and included research at the national collections of Kew Gardens and Wakehurst Place. The large-scale versions of the images and texts were used for the subsequent exhibition ‘In the open’, at Murray Edwards College in Cambridge (2015)
