While known principally as a house portraitist,  drawing buildings in a state of preservation
as well as recording historic buildings, Tessa Henderson became fascinated by the sites of
demolition on the East Suffolk Coast, where she has a cottage. Her interest began in the old workshops of  Wm. C. Reade of Aldeburgh. the building firm, with the majesty of the wood
working machines. When the demolition of the building began she realised that there was a
wealth of imagery to be found as light was let into hitherto enclosed parts of the buildings and
the structure was revealed. ‘I found it exhilarating to capture images that would be gone by
the next day, as well as discovering unexpected views of Aldeburgh’.

“this series started with a walk in the snow in my local cemetery, Fortune Green in West Hampstead. Seeing the 2 series together, I find some kinship between the silent presences of the angels and the band saws - and a mystery in both.”
