I sought to create a contrast between the natural, riven surface of the material, depicting the wanderings of wild creatures, and the honed area of italic lettering. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/566f4ed7c21b866652edf534/1479986210666-KLHEVV4QM3IPMPTK3N7Q/P1050372.JPG Welcome - 1686 Private Commission 1686, Welsh Slate (250x100x20mm) A number for a house in Hayama, Japan https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/566f4ed7c21b866652edf534/1479984278452-T14L5AQ1WBJE4BJH3ZZ8/oir+na+tire.JPG Welcome - Oir Na Tire Oir na tire: The Edge of the Land ◦ Sea-rock ◦ Bay ◦ Headland ◦ Promontory, Caithness Stone (1080x330x25mm) Caithness stone, which this piece is made from, evokes a strong sense of place and time to me. It was with this in mind that I thought that carving the northernmost coastline of mainland Britain, which is part of the county of Caithness, would be apt; a landscape made from part of the landscape. I felt that the sound and sight of the Scottish Gaelic words were better suited to the piece than their English equivalents. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/566f4ed7c21b866652edf534/1542369074598-TS253MK901ZNUTDF4DAT/IMG-1631.JPG Welcome - Bees Thrive, Asparagus Abounds and Gnats Play About Purbeck boulders https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/566f4ed7c21b866652edf534/1479986975721-43NQFQ0OL80G02O4PMHV/FullSizeRender.jpg Welcome - Thieves One of the thieves was saved; do not despair; One of the thieves was damned; do not presume, Moleanos Blue Limestone - black and white image (500x300x20) The quotation is a mis-quotation of St Augustine, by Thomas Beckett. Beckett talks about the ‘form’ of the idea, which felt apposite in the context of giving words literal ‘form’ by carving. The letterforms draw on forms founds in Berber script, as St Augustine is thought to have been a Berber. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/566f4ed7c21b866652edf534/1455386064651-LYU8WK35FIB4JZQC1RTI/WP_002712.jpg Welcome -
