Lark stone | 2016 | Still from digital documentation of live action | 2m 8s of video with sound |
I'm delighted to be joining Susie David in a show she's curated called Stone.
“Seven artists consider stone in its simplest, rawest form – a rawness that provides oblique allegories: for deep time, for resistance, for nurturing, and for healing.”

Megan and I are showing Lark stone that we made with Susie back in 2016 during a collaboration at Dawlish Warren.
The simple gesture of turning a piece of chert in the hand conjures the song of a skylark: the weight and inertness of the stone contrasting with the bird’s energetic movements and song. The stone sings along, squeaking gently as it is handled.
