Hastings Beach

‘Machine on Hastings Beach’ – Mixed media on paper 2024.

Hastings beach can be a thrill in so many different ways. Besides the magnificent sea, beach and fishing vessels it is also the graveyard for a good number of abandoned vehicles used to pull fishing boats onto the beach for repair. If you enjoy a scene that hints at a post apocalypse landscape without any art direction then you’ll enjoy the slowly corroding metal machines on Hastings beach; it’s like an open air museum for heavy duty internal combustion engines of the 20th century. One such machine with its circular geometry, dangling wires and rusting bolts was the inspiration for ‘Machine On Hastings Beach’.
