Presented here are twenty closeboard fences, nearly all of which are situated within walking distance of Ian Homerston’s flat and studio in Deal, on the Kent coast. Homerston began photographing this particular kind of fence a few years ago, initially with the intention of painting them, “Making paintings of them that is”. As Homerston describes, “A fence as a structure shares certain characteristics with the material support of a painting - fences and paintings both tending to have a front, a back, and an edge. But the construction of a closeboard fence means it has a surface which is made up of multiple surfaces and edges.. Seeing as I tend to make paintings of things that are nearby, once I began to notice their formal qualities it was probably only a matter of time before I started to paint them.”
Ian Homerston is an artist living in Deal, UK.
