carved block/ printers ink/ alloy scapula
Northern bloc
Inspired by the writings of Iain Sinclair ‘consulting the scapula….’ A found wooden block, the intimacy of carrying an object, carving the burnt material to reveal form that echo’s the western shore gauged by the Atlantic storms. A sheeps scapula sand cast in alloy tool and augury. A totemic piece, offering to past and future. The primal beauty of another Shetland winter the balance of light and darkness ever changing in these cyclical journeys.
