Landscapes for Peace

Wesley Stacey photographed in Japan and Korea in the mid 1990s
while exhibiting 'Landscapes for Peace' in Kyoto and Seoul.

The exhibition included 15 black and white panoramic prints drawn from his 1980s work
and celebrated the idea of Kyoto being founded as the city of peace and tranquillity in AD794.

The prints were framed with bamboo on bamboo tripods - no nailing into the temple precinct walls.

Stone Arrangements East/West   In Japan and Korea, Wesley began photographing a project which explored the theme of peoples using stone in their arrangements with their gods. Wesley completed the photography in 1988 in west France and south England. He produced an album folio of 150 images.       image #90-01
