Theo Simpson’s 2021 photograph, *Map of Horizons (Part I)*, shows a slice of ancient time frozen in stone. It’s a black-and-white shot of petrified wood from Borth’s long-submerged forest on the Ceredigion coast. Simpson blends photography with engineering, turning landscapes into objects that talk about Britain’s past. His work links nature, industry, and politics. This piece grew from a walk where he saw wood turned to rock by time and tide. He prints, engraves, and shapes the images so they feel both natural and made. See how he mixes art and mechanics.
