Poems of the Sea
2023
Poems of the Sea explores how context and means of presentation change the perception of objects. Chalk pebbles found in Margate were photographed in a set resembling the traditional white cube gallery. Through this, the sculptural qualities of the objects were accentuated and the viewer left to question origin, size and value.

The catalogue of these readymade sculptures remains deliberately stripped back, providing the reader with almost no information. Instead the focus lays on the tactile experience of the pages and the sculptural forms of each pebble.
