The Ghost Woods 

Ghost Woods Project for WildCard

The Ghost Woods is a video art piece which responds to the quiet loss of the UK’s ancient woodlands — landscapes once alive with rooted histories, now replaced by regimented timber plantations. Created for a Wild Card zine campaign advocating for rewilding, the work reimagines these “ghost woods” through a poetic lens of memory and renewal.

Using found footage, Partington weaves a dialogue between two parallel worlds: the organic rhythm of natural growth and the mechanised pulse of human intervention. Placed side by side, these collaged visuals become an elegy of contrasts — bloom and destruction, growth and regression, nature and the man-made.

The piece invites reflection on what lingers after erasure — a spectral ecology, caught between what was lost and what might return.

Album Cover Visuals - Rickerly

This project unfolds across three seasonal album releases, each accompanied by a commissioned artwork exploring the shifting rhythms of time and identity. Partington’s work delves into the interplay between masks and masked selves, tracing the fluid boundaries of persona as they resonate with the cyclical pulse of the seasons. For this series, Partington crafted two large-scale masks designed for live performance, allowing the physicality and presence of these objects to inhabit the works before being translated into the final collaged compositions. The resulting pieces evoke a multidimensional space where seasonality, performativity, and the enigmatic power of the mask converge, capturing fleeting gestures of identity as they emerge, transform, and dissolve.

Pride in Motion 

This project began as a series of workshops in collaboration with the National Football Museum and the LGBTQ+ Foundation, working with a vibrant community of LGBTQ+ women and non-binary participants. The project sought to traverse the spaces where football culture often feels exclusionary, creating moments of connection, visibility, and belonging. It became a celebration of movement, energy, and queer joy—an exploration of how bodies, gestures, and play can rewrite the narratives of space and sport. 

The final outcomes of this project ende with a series of playful stop-motion animations created by participants after weeks of investigation, discussion and collaboration about pride in the world of football.
