Brighton Sea Swimmers

Sea swimming has long been touted as beneficial for our health – just look at how recuperation at the British seaside became a medical prescription in the Regency period (early 19th Century). It’s a tradition that has been upheld on the Sussex coast, with the Brighton Sea Swimmers venturing in for a daily dip, 365 days a year (weather permitting). In 2020, with the pandemic closing gyms etc, more people noticeably turned to sea swimming… This series was initially inspired by a scene seen on a cold January day on the coast, and then added to as the seasons and characters seen on the beach changed.

Mixed-media collages (acrylics, papers); various sizes
