The full piece is re-printed below. It was a treat to photograph Kathleen, over the years since I have grown addicted to her beautiful poetry and exquisite prose. </span></div><div dir="auto" style="text-align: start;"><span style="font-family: georgia;"> </span></div><div dir="auto" style="text-align: start;"><h3 style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: georgia;">Kathleen Jamie :: 1992 </span></h3></div><div dir="auto" style="text-align: start;"><span style="font-family: georgia;"> </span></div><div dir="auto" style="text-align: start;"><span style="font-family: georgia;"><span class="tojvnm2t a6sixzi8 abs2jz4q a8s20v7p t1p8iaqh k5wvi7nf q3lfd5jv pk4s997a bipmatt0 cebpdrjk qowsmv63 owwhemhu dp1hu0rb dhp61c6y iyyx5f41">I
was nervous of meeting Kathleen Jamie, doubly so as our first scheduled
meeting fell through. I got half way to Fife before I turned back as
there was still no answer to my phone calls. She phoned later that day
to apologise - dinner with friends the night before had spilled over too
far into today. Could we arrange another day ?
Perhaps this is why she was so generous with her time when we did meet -
I spent the best part of a day with her, thankfully as it was only
right at the end of the day that I got my picture. When we met, there was a quiet strength and intensity about her that I
knew it would difficult to convey in a portrait. I also felt her
wariness of me. </span></span></div><div dir="auto" style="text-align: start;"><span style="font-family: georgia;"><span class="tojvnm2t a6sixzi8 abs2jz4q a8s20v7p t1p8iaqh k5wvi7nf q3lfd5jv pk4s997a bipmatt0 cebpdrjk qowsmv63 owwhemhu dp1hu0rb dhp61c6y iyyx5f41"> </span></span></div><div dir="auto" style="text-align: start;"><span style="font-family: georgia;"><span class="tojvnm2t a6sixzi8 abs2jz4q a8s20v7p t1p8iaqh k5wvi7nf q3lfd5jv pk4s997a bipmatt0 cebpdrjk qowsmv63 owwhemhu dp1hu0rb dhp61c6y iyyx5f41">She took me on one of her regular walks, me tagging along burdened with
camera bags as she politely answered my questions. She walked every day
and I guessed she was slowing her pace for me as I frantically searched
for the right place for our picture.
Can we try a picture under this tree ... on this bridge ... in the park
... I hoped she couldn't sense the inner turmoil as I struggled to
capture something of her on film. I had searched for clues in her work,
clipped rhetoric where every line sang with a richness and love of
language, but had decided I must go with what I felt when I met her. Now
here I was, and I was toiling. I began to worry that she might sense
this.
She wondered aloud about photographers creating images of '<i>fey poets ...
staring into the middle distance'</i>. I felt warned off. Time for a break. </span></span></div><div dir="auto" style="text-align: start;"><span style="font-family: georgia;"><span class="tojvnm2t a6sixzi8 abs2jz4q a8s20v7p t1p8iaqh k5wvi7nf q3lfd5jv pk4s997a bipmatt0 cebpdrjk qowsmv63 owwhemhu dp1hu0rb dhp61c6y iyyx5f41"> </span></span></div><div dir="auto" style="text-align: start;"><span style="font-family: georgia;"><span class="tojvnm2t a6sixzi8 abs2jz4q a8s20v7p t1p8iaqh k5wvi7nf q3lfd5jv pk4s997a bipmatt0 cebpdrjk qowsmv63 owwhemhu dp1hu0rb dhp61c6y iyyx5f41">After lunch, a roll from the corner shop, lacking any further
inspiration, I showed her some of my pictures. I don't know if this
changed something, but somehow I felt she let down her guard a bit. She
showed me round her home, a Fife High Street house with tiny rooms. Her
partner Phil was busy doing some serious renovations, and though the
sitting room was furnished, I didn't see any writing desk. She had been
evasive when I'd asked earlier where she wrote, but now it seemed that
she felt she could trust me enough to let me into her secret. She
lowered a trap door and a ladder slipped down. I followed her up to find
a tiny space crammed with outdoor walking gear. Half hidden was a tiny
door to her room beyond. </span></span></div><div dir="auto" style="text-align: start;"><span style="font-family: georgia;"><span class="tojvnm2t a6sixzi8 abs2jz4q a8s20v7p t1p8iaqh k5wvi7nf q3lfd5jv pk4s997a bipmatt0 cebpdrjk qowsmv63 owwhemhu dp1hu0rb dhp61c6y iyyx5f41"> </span></span></div><div dir="auto" style="text-align: start;"><span style="font-family: georgia;"><span class="tojvnm2t a6sixzi8 abs2jz4q a8s20v7p t1p8iaqh k5wvi7nf q3lfd5jv pk4s997a bipmatt0 cebpdrjk qowsmv63 owwhemhu dp1hu0rb dhp61c6y iyyx5f41">Kathleen explained that the room was empty as she had just packed for a
University post in Canada, and I tried to sound casual as I asked if she
minded if I went back down for my camera bag. I left all the lighting
and medium format gear I had carefully packed and hurried back up the
stairs, my heart racing that perhaps I had it this time. I was just in
time to catch the intense sheen from the shaft of light creeping through
the window of her attic hideaway. The room was so tiny I had to use a
wider lens than I would have liked, but I couldn't have hoped for more
in the final picture. </span></span></div><div dir="auto" style="text-align: start;"><span style="font-family: georgia;"><span class="tojvnm2t a6sixzi8 abs2jz4q a8s20v7p t1p8iaqh k5wvi7nf q3lfd5jv pk4s997a bipmatt0 cebpdrjk qowsmv63 owwhemhu dp1hu0rb dhp61c6y iyyx5f41"> </span></span></div><div dir="auto" style="text-align: start;"><span style="font-family: georgia;"><span class="tojvnm2t a6sixzi8 abs2jz4q a8s20v7p t1p8iaqh k5wvi7nf q3lfd5jv pk4s997a bipmatt0 cebpdrjk qowsmv63 owwhemhu dp1hu0rb dhp61c6y iyyx5f41">The clues are all in there, the typewriter, the
dictionary, the postcard from her travels, but it is the inner strength of her
pose, the searching self containment of her expression, the grace of
those hands and the unearthly quality of light that make this one of the
favourite pictures I've ever taken.
For me the picture of Kathleen will always be about the processes of
inspiration and creation, and the memories it holds of that whole day
struggling to get a picture that only came once I stopped looking so
hard.</span></span></div><div dir="auto" style="text-align: start;"><span style="font-family: georgia;"><span class="tojvnm2t a6sixzi8 abs2jz4q a8s20v7p t1p8iaqh k5wvi7nf q3lfd5jv pk4s997a bipmatt0 cebpdrjk qowsmv63 owwhemhu dp1hu0rb dhp61c6y iyyx5f41"> </span></span></div><div dir="auto" style="text-align: start;"><span style="font-family: georgia;"><span class="tojvnm2t a6sixzi8 abs2jz4q a8s20v7p t1p8iaqh k5wvi7nf q3lfd5jv pk4s997a bipmatt0 cebpdrjk qowsmv63 owwhemhu dp1hu0rb dhp61c6y iyyx5f41"> </span></span></div><div dir="auto" style="text-align: start;"><span style="font-family: georgia;"><span class="tojvnm2t a6sixzi8 abs2jz4q a8s20v7p t1p8iaqh k5wvi7nf q3lfd5jv pk4s997a bipmatt0 cebpdrjk qowsmv63 owwhemhu dp1hu0rb dhp61c6y iyyx5f41"> </span></span></div><div dir="auto" style="text-align: start;"><span style="font-family: georgia;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both;

Working on editorial jobs, he was quite unlike a news photographer. He was patient, unobtrusive, polite. Doing portraits, he didn’t impose. He illuminated. Iain created a series called Self Portrait, in which celebrities were asked to sketch their own likeness, and were then photographed with the cartoon. This was long before the smartphone selfie. It wasn’t about posing. It was an act of disarmament, and the results were startling. It didn’t matter whether the subject could draw. They were forced to make a decision about how they wanted to be seen. Mostly, the portraits acted as a two-way mirror. It was a playful interrogation, an act of consent. It was fun, not therapy. Though, on at least one occasion, the subject decided that not being seen at all was better than submitting to this casual confession. </span></span></span></div><div class="" style="-moz-text-size-adjust: auto; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; caret-color: rgb(0, 0, 0); color: black; font-stretch: normal; font-style: normal; font-variant-caps: normal; font-weight: normal; letter-spacing: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px; text-align: start; text-decoration: none; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; white-space: normal; word-spacing: 0px;"><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: georgia;"><span class=""> </span></span></span></div><div class="" style="-moz-text-size-adjust: auto; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; caret-color: rgb(0, 0, 0); color: black; font-stretch: normal; font-style: normal; font-variant-caps: normal; font-weight: normal; letter-spacing: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px; text-align: start; text-decoration: none; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; white-space: normal; word-spacing: 0px;"><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: georgia;"><span class="">Years later, on a visit to the Photographers’ Gallery in London, I was shown a quite different side to Iain’s work. There, in an imposing folder, were some of his large format landscape photos. Actually, landscape isn’t right. These were seascapes. More accurately, they were horizons, photographed with such coolness and distance that the Earth became abstract; colour scarred by a line. But where were the people?</span></span></span></div><div class="" style="-moz-text-size-adjust: auto; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; caret-color: rgb(0, 0, 0); color: black; font-stretch: normal; font-style: normal; font-variant-caps: normal; font-weight: normal; letter-spacing: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px; text-align: start; text-decoration: none; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; white-space: normal; word-spacing: 0px;"><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: georgia;"><span class=""> </span></span></span></div><div class="" style="-moz-text-size-adjust: auto; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; caret-color: rgb(0, 0, 0); color: black; font-stretch: normal; font-style: normal; font-variant-caps: normal; font-weight: normal; letter-spacing: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px; text-align: start; text-decoration: none; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; white-space: normal; word-spacing: 0px;"><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: georgia;"><span class="">The lines are messier on Iain’s recent work, the focus less razored, but the photographer’s intentions remain. It may seem like a logical absurdity, but the storm-lashed landscapes of Innersound are as meditative and self-reflective as any self-portrait. There’s a painterly condensation in the images, a mizzle of Turner, a fret of Rothko, and maybe a musical echo or two. You might detect an element of masochism in the deteriorating conditions, as the photographer ventures through inhospitable landscapes to far flung coasts; or you might just accept the metaphorical logic and concede that life gets messy, and that there is no such thing as bad weather, only inappropriate clothes. The writer Robert Macfarlane observes: “There’s something original and ambitious at work here; a shard-like hard-cutting between image and place and text. Sometimes it’s bewildering - but then that’s true of the places Stewart is fascinated by as well. There’s a winter-chill to the mountain photographs, and a storm-ferocity to the seascapes, that’s born of somewhere between muteness and confusion.”</span></span></span></div><div class="" style="-moz-text-size-adjust: auto; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; caret-color: rgb(0, 0, 0); color: black; font-stretch: normal; font-style: normal; font-variant-caps: normal; font-weight: normal; letter-spacing: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px; text-align: start; text-decoration: none; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; white-space: normal; word-spacing: 0px;"><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: georgia;"><span class=""> </span></span></span></div><div class="" style="-moz-text-size-adjust: auto; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; caret-color: rgb(0, 0, 0); color: black; font-stretch: normal; font-style: normal; font-variant-caps: normal; font-weight: normal; letter-spacing: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px; text-align: start; text-decoration: none; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; white-space: normal; word-spacing: 0px;"><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: georgia;"><span class="">If biography helps, the pictures were the result of a painful reflection on the death of Stewart’s father, after a slow retreat into Alzheimer’s disease. As with any act of poetry, the purity of the artist’s intent points to something more universal. Death is the starkest part of that equation, and while there is no diluting its finality, there are comforts to be found in the swells and eddies of the tide, in the life cycles of rain and renewal, and the optimistic sense that a storm endured is a storm defeated. That experience can be savoured and passed on so that the journeys of others may feel less perilous. </span></span></span></div><div class="" style="-moz-text-size-adjust: auto; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; caret-color: rgb(0, 0, 0); color: black; font-stretch: normal; font-style: normal; font-variant-caps: normal; font-weight: normal; letter-spacing: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px; text-align: start; text-decoration: none; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; white-space: normal; word-spacing: 0px;"><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: georgia;"><span class=""> </span></span></span></div><div class="" style="-moz-text-size-adjust: auto; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; caret-color: rgb(0, 0, 0); color: black; font-stretch: normal; font-style: normal; font-variant-caps: normal; font-weight: normal; letter-spacing: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px; text-align: start; text-decoration: none; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; white-space: normal; word-spacing: 0px;"><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: georgia;"><span class="">These pictures are storm warnings.

The city, like so much of the North, had paid a grim price through a decade of Thatcher; the rapid decline of the steel industry, scores of empty factories, the devastation and conflict of the Miners Strike, record levels of unemployment. Yet I clearly recall sensing a defiant optimism in the air when I returned in late 1990. It was my first visit to The Untitled Gallery since the move to Brown Street and there was a distinct creative buzz growing in the surrounding area; you can’t crush spirit; attack us and we just come back stronger, with more attitude. What would become the Cultural Industries Quarter was getting up and running; music and art scenes were busy beavering away. Sheffield always does great music scenes. I worked late in the darkrooms to bangs and bleeps from upstairs; you never knew who’d be coming down the stairs from Warp Records. Boy George popped into the café for a bowl of soup. (He politely declined a photo “I haven’t got my slap on’”). Heck, David Essex was recording round the corner. A local astronaut was even back down in town for the summer… and work was progressing on a big new shopping centre just out of town. <br /><p></p><p><br /></p><p style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: georgia;"><span style="font-family: georgia;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh9BaWegWSS0JPTyWht489Nsgxsk5ZXoBuZoewWlCsLIBydBBGSEz2SkrLzkREfg8pHmKf6AROxzt-REocV5y3-p9KNGHR8flmTNONszC4JRgo1p919rdpYg5Ya_-yPN5kN2rf1ged5H64/s1280/109819524_3239163692807322_3412413198790015899_o.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="913" data-original-width="1280" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh9BaWegWSS0JPTyWht489Nsgxsk5ZXoBuZoewWlCsLIBydBBGSEz2SkrLzkREfg8pHmKf6AROxzt-REocV5y3-p9KNGHR8flmTNONszC4JRgo1p919rdpYg5Ya_-yPN5kN2rf1ged5H64/s320/109819524_3239163692807322_3412413198790015899_o.jpg" width="320" /></a></span> </span><span style="font-family: georgia;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhMzqV3qqsyD_KAzglnEMHU5YCB_fXZZF14-G5vExyeCtPqnIwE4E_sOoN_STrHWTgiKbABib4DKERDfEKjHVfUXe5iSFFGR5RXFOVOpMPbhE5pag31-OwKINZOgNxLIlGLCx-HiI4MjJk/s1280/109505399_3239163116140713_3479012733825812361_o.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="906" data-original-width="1280" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhMzqV3qqsyD_KAzglnEMHU5YCB_fXZZF14-G5vExyeCtPqnIwE4E_sOoN_STrHWTgiKbABib4DKERDfEKjHVfUXe5iSFFGR5RXFOVOpMPbhE5pag31-OwKINZOgNxLIlGLCx-HiI4MjJk/s320/109505399_3239163116140713_3479012733825812361_o.jpg" width="320" /></a></span></p><p><span style="font-family: georgia;"> I’d photographed Glasgow’s year as City of European Culture in 1990, documenting some of the green shoots of cultural regeneration up close. There was every reason to feel equally sanguine about what might lie ahead for Sheffield. My brief was to cover as much of the XIV Universiade as I could. July was a packed month of community arts events, music, theatre, poetry recitals, talks – book-ended by the Opening and Closing ceremonies of World Student Games, held in the newly opened Don Valley Stadium. I remember Sheffield 1991 as a summer of positivity, energy and hope. Good will, hard graft - and yes, probably a bit of improv and blagging it but with the right mix of caffeine and adrenalin everyone somehow got through a hugely ambitious programme more or less intact. History notes the financial and strategic complications, the blips and bloopers; my pictures don’t. They were not intended as PR gloss, but there’s no bad stuff to be found here anyway. Suspend the cynicism; these shots were candid and well intentioned, and I hope caught something genuine of the moment. <br /></span></p><p><br /></p><p style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: georgia;"><span style="font-family: georgia;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiKBU-dVJ-OzbDMAQwxect2TzadlPFVCBUsqYcysP0F8hOQB8X9UrFCG8jqHFc2wFsAw4QuMP7OKNPAVzM1fz5t5p0FskO47d8PytAGEeM13kUpwJK8ZFqXlbU1VSUhLlhQgZao8Ua64K8/s917/110137826_3243045515752473_4801136623810032903_n.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="613" data-original-width="917" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiKBU-dVJ-OzbDMAQwxect2TzadlPFVCBUsqYcysP0F8hOQB8X9UrFCG8jqHFc2wFsAw4QuMP7OKNPAVzM1fz5t5p0FskO47d8PytAGEeM13kUpwJK8ZFqXlbU1VSUhLlhQgZao8Ua64K8/s320/110137826_3243045515752473_4801136623810032903_n.jpg" width="320" /></a></span> </span></p><p style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: georgia;">There’s vibrancy and energy, youngsters from all over the globe parading through the city streets blowing whistles, laughing, waving flags. Union colours proudly abound, and sit happily next to symbols of our ties to European friends and neighbours – frontiers open, hands joined. There was a joy, optimism, coming together for sport, competition and celebration. Cultures rubbed up against each other just fine, local communities partied, it felt outward looking and inclusive. In the midst some art was born and documents were made – I was there, Sheffield stepped up - this is the proof. </span></p><p style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: georgia;"><br /></span></p><p style="text-align: left;"></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjqPDC7jMRD3clbiBNBPlfvoFCINnvNMDSBCRpzXVeifazeEYPC_JXESuTpIVgeVfGAIXIu5jUNakq5WZy17FAEo2PRRib5GouJkq3RjEjiDuWUGVG5Cy7kKftgi9lNgosUbNgSjo-pwBk/s1280/109124237_3239163236140701_3165617796000344849_o.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="894" data-original-width="1280" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjqPDC7jMRD3clbiBNBPlfvoFCINnvNMDSBCRpzXVeifazeEYPC_JXESuTpIVgeVfGAIXIu5jUNakq5WZy17FAEo2PRRib5GouJkq3RjEjiDuWUGVG5Cy7kKftgi9lNgosUbNgSjo-pwBk/s320/109124237_3239163236140701_3165617796000344849_o.jpg" width="320" /></a></div><br /><br /><span style="font-family: georgia;"><br /></span><p></p>isphotographshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16245007343221888509noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4493293808486358785.post-68564508731776903772020-10-04T12:00:00.001+01:002020-11-20T12:12:22.962+00:00Leaves<p> </p><p></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEignsCNL6aKXNAq-X-0BGv7yGsRamSnAUC8omDMBVf13A9MYdqTngprxca-ty-a4_ETZ_WWiXx_NyWdbeQVIuSMa-rgXNBkvCSxCS52sd1Jf7aftdm93bi8PlSA6b_jrLQq_q9kXhCTGLA/s2048/aa-leaves.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1304" data-original-width="2048" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEignsCNL6aKXNAq-X-0BGv7yGsRamSnAUC8omDMBVf13A9MYdqTngprxca-ty-a4_ETZ_WWiXx_NyWdbeQVIuSMa-rgXNBkvCSxCS52sd1Jf7aftdm93bi8PlSA6b_jrLQq_q9kXhCTGLA/s320/aa-leaves.png" width="320" /></a></div><br /> <p></p><p><span style="font-family: georgia;">The publication of <a href="https://studiesinphotography.com/collections/journals/products/leaves">Leaves</a> is inspired by David Ainslie who after his
death in 1900 left his wealth to fund a convalescent hospital in the
south side of Edinburg<span class="text_exposed_show">h. Patients would
have practical help from the hospital in a green place where they could
benefit from being in nature. With the establishment of the NHS this
hospital became government property - and it has been managed by them
since 1948. The proposal now is to dispose of the hospital and fund more
concentrated sites. The Astley Ainslie Community Trust hope the NHS and the Scottish Government will keep the Hospital in
public hands and as a green space in the heart of a crowded city for
public health and happiness.<br /> ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀<i><br /> ‘This land is public
property. It was historically part of the common good of Edinburgh and
should be dedicated to a continued interest in nature, our health,
wellbeing and creative pleasures.’</i><br /> - Sara Stevenson</span></span><span style="font-family: georgia;"></span><br /></p>isphotographshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16245007343221888509noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4493293808486358785.post-54926012745551409772020-09-20T19:00:00.002+01:002020-11-20T12:20:56.469+00:00Pityoulish<p> </p><div class="separator" style="clear: both;
