At that particular moment

Hutchinson's newest project, 'At that Particular Moment', is the sequel to his celebrated and highly collected work ‘Polar Convergence'. The project situates itself within a location previously visited by the artist in 2002, Denali National Park, Alaska. Hutchinson's interest was in how a mountain that’s notorious for creating its ownweather patterns, self-formulated by a mix of atmospheric pressures, oxygen levels, and glacial fronts, is being affected by actions occurring outside the National Park. In the Autumn of 2024 Hutchinson to this interest into action, and entered the unforgivable landscape by charter plane, locations predominantly reserved for the most highly skilled alpinists. Upon returning, he formulated artworks, based on his observations, each work a powerful expression of the impact of the changing environment.

As a comprehensive body of work the project is divided into three distinct yet interconnected chapters: the Entry Points, the entry to the project, landscape, and authentication of the sheer mass contained within the National Park, the Interventions, the un-disputable and horrific documentation of humans' impact on the fragile landscape, and to-be continued descriptions of the landscape currently in flux, works describing in vivid detail the magnitude of climatic shifts occurring at that particular moment. Unlike his previous series Polar convergence, a project that experimented with alternative photographic techniques to re-sensitise the Arctic landscape, essentially to dramatise the impacts of climate change, this new series three-years in the making presents the landscape in its most raw form, the works posit the past, present, and future of a singular location, illustrating humans' impacts on a previously stable environment and serving as a precedent on a global scale.
