Umbrous draws upon the emotions and devastation surrounding the Covid-19 pandemic and was a way of me exploring as well as understanding what was a very confusing and unsettling period of time spent in lockdown with family. My ideas stemmed from searching and using my homeland as a metaphor to reflect the death and fear in the world. Alongside these images I set up a background in my garden thinking of scenes that I could capture to bring a sense of theatre to my work. The narrative builds on the theme of apprehension and transcends to showcase a diary of life in uncertain times, questioning the power we really have over our existence.

“I’m part of the lucky 18% who survive”, says Susie Sutton-Lloyd. 4 years ago Susie developed a sub-arachnoid brain haemorrhage. For 2 years it devastated her life; she lost her balance, experienced vertigo..
The haemorrhage was a turning point for Susie. “Never would I have predicted that it would be the best thing that ever happened to me”. “This event allowed me to discover that I have a deep soul full of energy.” After recovering, Susie began to rebuild her physical and mental strength through Pilates. She has become vegan, her life is led though an ethical framework of post-haemorrhage beliefs. The narrative reflects on this journey, celebrating themes of hope and strength through difficult times.
