About this artwork
Out of rock and earth, life emerges. Geological time is slow, but instoppable. Small things thrive and, over millions of years, become big things. We are born.
Born In Stone is created from hand-mixed mineral pigments - primarily Irish Red Ochre, Italian Burnt Umber, and Chalk. They are complemented by hand made water-based and alcohol-based inks which suggest traces of earler life forms deep inside the surface of the painting.
It's a vibrant… and slow-exploding homage to life and to the planet on which we evolved.
