Impact and outcome
It seems gentle in this moment,
even in its coming to be
it's only a change in time,
Could you bloom?
This time
the aftermath of water,
emerged a new landscape,
carving new pathways
Holding new possibilities
textures, forms.
Merely visitors
We find our stage
cracked and layered
Peeling upwards from the ground
A platform, A canvas
Built of clay, a sculpted land
The depth of orange
curves of salt
Ground as pigment, ground up earth
The artist collaborates with you.
Artists Ffion Taverner and Penny Booth collaborate on a project exploring the landscape of the Atacama Desert, Chile after devastating floods of 2019. One of the driest places on earth, flooded.
