3-Dimensional Landscapes:
Essence of Scotland
Essence of Scotland
The colours and textures of East Lothian provide constant inspiration, with a particular draw towards the prestigious geology of the land of James Hutton - philosopher of the Scottish Enlightenment and Father of modern geology.
"Essence of Scotland" land and seascapes are encapsulated in large perspex sealed boxed, resonating specimens. Manipulated newspaper, coloured with pastels and charcoal, encase a specific date and political or cultural reporting, likening to fossils that can be studied to determine their place in time.
The 3-dimensional texture of Seona's panorama snapshots encourage the viewer to explore depth of field; rolling hills and strata; view the works as angular jigsaw pieces that neatly fit together.
