Marble
Site-specific dry stonewalled installation at the entrance of a working marble quarry. Created during a month long residency at the Rutland carving Studios. The inspiration for this tower came from the history, the grave yards and long forgotten homeland of the Irish miners of the quarries in the 1700s. To sounds of St Bridget Church bell calling to prayer.
