Pebbles was created as a gallery piece. Rocks and pebbles were collected from the coastline around the UK and cast in clear resin. They were lit from underneath to emphasise the casts and bring them alive.
The artist was intrigued by the idea of taking unremarkable pebbles and transforming them into beautiful and striking objects, in the same way that mundane grey and brown pebbles on the beach reveal their hidden beauty and become alive with colours when immersed in the sea.
Pebbles Rock Pebbles evokes the coastline rock, transforming it into a seabed of light and translating the natural world into the gallery space.
