Palimpsest Print by Neil Bousfield

The Broads is a place with a sense of uniqueness, with a unique biodiversity and ecology rich in plant and animal life. Lying below or at sea level and adjacent to the sea a complex network of cuts, dykes and drainage pumps maintain a landscape once beneath the sea. Fragility, temporality, loss and narrative – people made, created and constructed this place, they built their homes, lived and worked here, investing themselves within this location.
