About the work
Rock Formation, inspired by weathered rock formations by the seaside is a representation of the scars of time as seen in nature. The forces of earth: waves, wind and salt, leave their imprint on the coastline and form unique rock shapes that speak of the passing of time. The work is made by stitching together different sizes of scrap canvases, creating the illusion of fragments, with ink to represent the flowing movement of water in an ever changing landscape.
