'High Tea'

James takes us through the inspiration behind two of the works on show:
'High Tea' - "During some of the worst flooding and heavy rain across Yorkshire in decades I took a trip around an abandoned factory of sorts. The rain was pouring down heavily with the clouds looking quite threatening outside the window. Water showered down through the floors making exploring far more dangerous than it usually is. The building obviously had seen some visitors in its time after its closure but elements still remain of the activities once performed in the rooms."

'Ascension To The Surface'

'Ascension To The Surface' - "A photo from a return visit to a location on my very first day of exploring. This was the basement of a church-cum-community hall. Sadly it is now a block of student flats (like everything else!). There was also a mural painted down here in the basement which left many questions unanswered and seems more and more unlikely that they ever will be."
