SPTA: A Landscape in Service is an ongoing photographic project that explores the profound and lasting impact of military occupation on the Salisbury Plain Training Area (SPTA), the largest military training ground in the UK. Stretching across 390 square kilometres of chalk grassland in south-west England, SPTA has been used for military exercises since its acquisition by the War Office in 1897. Over more than a century of training, conflict and national defence, the landscape has been indelibly marked, creating a striking contrast between human intervention and natural resilience.
The event will include a presentation from Wayne and an opportunity for a Q&A with the artist.
