Tread

Twelve blocks of various coloured marble form a line along the gallery floor.

The blocks originated in many different countries of the world… Italy , Brazil , Syria, Portugal , China ... geologically formed over millennia .

On each block a foot is carved. Some appear as if embedded, fossil-like, within the stone, like evidence of a human step. The colours range from blue, to black, to pink, to white, to amber yellow…

The marble was found in the store of Studio Carlo Nicoli in Carrara. They are offcuts from other jobs showing machinery cuts and scars from their extrication.

Tread reveals the limited presence of a human on earth, embedded over the millenia of geological time, sediment and pressure.

Bloodlines

Bloodlines is a series of photographs framed with sheets of red, hand-blown glass.

Rivers of deep red and captured bubbles of air enclose a series of photographs taken by the artist’s parents in the 1940s .

The central diptych shows a man looking one direction through binoculars and a woman looking the other way out a window. Others images involve rigging and yachts out at sea, the Fastnet lighthouse, the Daunt Lightship and life off the south west coast of Ireland where her parents met .
