First in a series of four specific and symbolic landscapes representing each of the four elements. 'Eilean Nam Bann', translated from Gaelic, 'island of the women', depicts water and a sequential rendition of tides, combined with a symbolic collection of carved, painted wooden debris, flotsam and jetsam, from the location on the isle of Mull.
