Calligraphy of the Earth
6 works
Landscape as writing: glacial streams draw pale lines through volcanic rock; sediments lay golden paths across a black ground. Water, erosion and time have drawn these forms. Calligraphy of the Earth brings together six works: lines, marks and the spaces between.
Palimpsest
A landscape written over: new watercourses cross old sediment layers, a parchment of geological time.
Ink Lines
Pale streams trace an extensive branching network across dark volcanic ash.
Two Alphabets
Golden sediment and silver streams write the same text in parallel, in different languages of erosion.
Marginalia
A winding river draws its line through dark rock. Green areas lie like marginal notes along its course.
Braided Script
Branching streams fan out like braided script across sediment and rock.
Golden Letters
Sediments settle like gilded writing on a dark ground. The earth dictates its own chronicle.
