‘Pomona Thrown’ (Photoprint on metal, 2016)
Pomona Thrown, 2016
A record of a brief performance intervention at Pomona, Salford, a slither of wasteland, edgeland dereliction, and site of current controversy as it is slated for redevelopment by Peel Holdings, the owners of the land. The word ‘Pomona’ is linked to the Roman goddess of abundance and is etymologically related to apples (French pomme).My intervention is a statement of play against a backdrop of alienated planning and unimaginative city development.
