The Art of Evolution

In the past, artists were deployed in places of worship to create visual messages to speak to people in order to enlighten and lift the human spirit, with the aim to connect modern ways of being, to the healing beauty of Mother Earth.

Here are ten images that I edited out of the online Hydrogen and Oxygen Two book (see next post) but I still felt they deserved an airing. So I hope you like them (but I am expecting an exodus as I always loose followers after posting something not graffiti related, but I see what I find in graffiti and urban landscapes is directly effected by Hydrogen and Oxygen - obvs this is just my view point but I’ve spent 20 years thinking about it 🤓 #art #science #fineart #photography #painting #photopainting #instaart #landscape #landscapephotography #colour #texture #composition #HO2 #Hydrogenandoxygen #unseenbeauty #usbarts #martinCarter #peace (at Ipswich, Suffolk) https://www.instagram.com/p/B_CmCKDjPaE/?igshid=1x7p5twonpmyj

I have not produced a book in a while know, I always planned to celebrate 2020 vision with a new series of online books. So here is the first one in series two starting with Hydrogen and Oxygen / Gas. Series one can be viewed online at issuu.com or through website in bio. On website go to Discover More to see more. This is new subject matter for this account, but I hope you can stick with me and eventually understand where I am going with all of this. In my head anything can be a painting, and a painting doesn’t have to be something made with paint. It’s not just me who thinks this of course and one of these days I’ll get around to exhibiting my works in my open air gallery, finally selling my wares, but right now during covid lockdown I just hope looking at some of my books can exchange boredom for curiosity. Only the few spend the time to relax and contemplate the world around them like I do, to reflect upon how we have changed the atmosphere around us and how now that atmosphere is starting to effect us. We forget that nature is much more powerful as an enemy and we need to adapt our consciousness. I suppose I am an environmental artist but I have a belief that one day the only place to see these things will be in space where everything we knew becomes unseen beauty 👨🏼‍🚀🌍 (at Ipswich, Suffolk) https://www.instagram.com/p/B_CiSo2j9d6/?igshid=1o4t50gn5pg0o

In this video looking at Urban Abstraction images - in this time of not going outside as I usually would every day 🧐 Having empathy for others is of paramount at this crazy time - I know we all feel we are stuck in a dreadful movie. At least I am watching it from the comfort of my own home. But I do spare a thought for those living on the streets. This is for you and I hope it can make a difference to keep everyone safe. 🙏🏻🦠😷🌳 #helpourhomeless #communityaction #homeless #homelesslivesmatter #USBmc (at Ipswich, Suffolk) https://www.instagram.com/p/B-SL5sXjbzL/?igshid=jruanl5gvgqf

Since the lockdown I have been trying to think of ways I can help during my self isolation from the outside world right now - and this brings the question how are those people without a home supposed to get off the street? Here are some of my Urban Abstraction photographs which I have used to create a video which will follow soon 🙏🏻 Through my photography I look to give you something to look at and appreciate from your warmth of your room and sofa (as I am) in the hope that if you are in a position to donate a little to help those on the front line who are supported by our public donations via the umbrella group Help our Homeless found at the link below 🙏🏻🦠😷 Stay safe and stay indoors useless you are one of our wonderful volunteers helping the community, healthcare workers, dr’s, nurses or paramedics, fire crews or law enforcement 👏 looking after someone’s medicine or shopping 💜 🤩💰🎖🧻 #helpourhomeless #communityaction #homeless #homelesslivesmatter #USBmc (at Ipswich, Suffolk) https://www.instagram.com/p/B-SLyKfDkrU/?igshid=1veeux2a2twbq

This is a short video created using some my Historic Landscapes series of fine art photographs - taken over a couple of decades during my travelling day’s. So I am super excited to be linking up with @izy.ghost a musician from Austria in this collaboration to raise awareness for the Woodland Trust tree planting scheme (link below in the comments section) showing how you might think you can’t help but by donating to plant trees you certainly will be helping and we can feel proud to be doing something positive. The climate fight will take the majority of humanity to have a positive effect for future generations 😀 #Up to now I have only been showing my Graffiti and Urban Landscape photography on here because that is the side of me I find most creative and wanted to show - but the story on how I got there comes through in all of my nature photography. By understanding the weather impaction and human interaction upon the world around us, we can learn to adapt as we always have had to, but then again a lot of us have never lived so good 😀🙏🏻 This is the whole point isn’t it - I suppose that means I am an environmental artist but I personally prefer not to have a label, my art is just a part of how I think and feel my way through my own life in the hope that it connects to other people in a positive exchange. #enoughisenough #rebelforlife #climatechangeawareness #actnow #airpollutionawareness #extinctionrebellion #woodlandtrust #xripswich #USB #UNSEENBEAUTY (at Ipswich, Suffolk) https://www.instagram.com/p/B9WZgD-AHO1/?igshid=u2c776wdmt3u

I have been excited about doing this one all the while creating the video over the last week. This is my first collaboration with @izy.ghost from Austria, the video includes his wonderful music track 🙏🏻 thanks for joining me in using creativity to raise awareness. Look at the comments below to see how you can help too 😷 we need help landing trees! This video looks at the colours and textures found in tree bark on 10 different species from around the world. While they may all appear to be different on the outside - below the surface they have a similar universal purpose, so through the survival of these natural habitats we will actually be helping ourselves. #enoughisenough #rebelforlife #climatechangeawareness #actnow #airpollutionawareness #extinctionrebellion #woodlandtrust #xripswich #USB #unseenbeauty (at Ipswich, Suffolk) https://www.instagram.com/p/B9WZblGgsbZ/?igshid=kyub7tg67d0n

This is a short video created using the full spectrum of my image making - looking at the knock on effect we are having upon the local landscape and imagining it being the same all over the globe. The global issue that inspired me to produce this piece is the air pollution caused by humans making journeys. I hope this message can be shared to many people so the message can be heard - we need to act now and that possibly means changing how you do things so future generations get to enjoy the childhood you had without having to lead the protest ☹️ can become a 😃 #Enoughisenough. #Rebelforlife. #climatechangeemergency #actnow #extinctionrebellion #xripswich #USB #unseenbeauty #airpollutionawareness 💙🙏🏻🌎 (at Ipswich, Suffolk) https://www.instagram.com/p/B857PqJgIdb/?igshid=zpm2ys6uay1t

With the understanding that we are on the saturation point to be able to have a say on the possible outcome for the planet. I hope to raise awareness of air pollution and the effect it is having upon human health, not to mention lost species in the animal kingdom which we seem to have little conscience for. At the end of the day do we want to save ourselves or not? If it is to be the later - take no further action if you want to make a difference decide if you need to jump in your car to make your next journey 🙏🏻🌎 oh 🐁’s (at Ipswich, Suffolk) https://www.instagram.com/p/B856BhpgkHr/?igshid=1wq62xtkvkhmq

While rummaging through my images for GN2 (see video) for my next USB photo book, I had to decide that these ten did not make the grade 🙏🏻 for those that like and follow - Happy 2020 🤓 This publication is a new online book by photographer Martin Carter, the second edition in the series taking a closer look at Graffiti found in our every day surroundings. USB : Fine Art Photography looks at the amazing colour, texture and natural composition found upon the surfaces other things in the everyday landscape. On this trip I explore once again the historic town of Ipswich in Suffolk to see what has changed over a year of weather impaction and human interaction. Ipswich is the place of my initial art understanding in the 1990’s, to become the place I work and reside. Within viewing distance of the place I almost lost my life 20 years ago.
