The Blackwood Archive
A preserved archive of documented encounters, field observations and recorded specimens from the margins of natural history.
The Blackwood Archive holds accounts of creatures that are seldom recorded in conventional natural history.
Within these are preserved illustrations and fragmentary field notes catalogued with precision to preserve against the erosion of knowledge.
Documented sightings are often sketched by lamplight, in liminal hours, under the most dangerous of circumstances.
