Faint Transmission

Faint Transmission draws on the beliefs of the Aetherius Society, a UFO religion founded in 1955 by George King, who claimed to receive telepathic messages from extraterrestrials. The group continues to perform rituals on Brown Willy, a Cornish hill they regard as a point of contact. Reimagining that landscape as a signal, the series employs a visual language shaped by early space imaging. The project transforms the ordinary into the unfamiliar, rendering a landscape unsettling. The photographs appear remote and indistinct, like transmissions from another place, suggesting the tenuous nature of distant contact.
