Crannog

By Frances Carlile 2021
Etching, from the exhibition Darkness and Light at the Bleddfa Centre, Mid Wales. July 2021 Crannogs are a type of loch dwelling found throughout Scotland. Here I have built a castle and equipped it with a boat. All are ready to flee. Within my work there is often an element of something that is about to happen.
