A primary concern for this body of work was to place the humble figure: vulnerable, fragile and ephemeral, against the weathering enduring shape of the land.  Contours of the body echo elemental patterns of land, sea and rock.

The Mochras faultline, visible as a line out to sea, west of Dyffryn Ardudwy, features symbolically: suggesting geology, ancient history, dreams and Welsh legends - its presence redolent with the promise of deliverance:

You strode across the sea

You marched across the ocean

But your steps could not be seen

Psalm 77: 19
