Outer Wilderness

The third instalment in an ongoing project exploring sequences of events unfolding across varied environments. Each book in the series is a standalone, wordless collection of illustrations that examine our relationship with the spaces we occupy. Outer Wilderness is the third and final instalment of a journey that began with introspective self-imagined places, followed by a passage of experience and memory and now looks further away to the edges of the universe and into the unknown. It explores a vast spectrum of locations beyond the boundaries of normal time and space. Each of these landscapes are inspired from a mix of science fiction, imagination and space documentaries which builds into a journey through a fantastical environment.
