A study in texture and stillness, The Weight of Softness captures a moment of quiet aftermath within an industrial wool shed. Fragments of wool, scattered like snowflakes on weathered timber boards, disrupt the order. Each tuft is a whisper of the animal it once clothed, a remnant of motion, warmth, and life. The floor holds these remnants gently, like secrets shed during labour.
The photograph blurs the boundary between the organic and the mechanical. It evokes a tactile quietude — the softness of wool against the harshness of process; the intimacy of touch preserved in industrial bulk. Light falls delicately, not to illuminate, but to suggest. Shadows cradle the bales as if acknowledging their quiet burden.
This is not just an image of production. It is a portrait of stillness, of residue, of the poetry embedded in the materials we often overlook. It asks us to pause — to consider the grace that resides in the unnoticed, the discarded, the soft.
Printed onto Canson Infinity Platine Fibre Rag which is a 100% cotton platinum paper combined with the latest microporous coating.
Printed using LUCIA PRO II Ink which is highly scratch resistant as well as high light
resistant for long-term preservation of prints.
Please note: the print does not come framed
