The digital realm as a vessel may have served its purpose and is looming in my mind now as a pressure, shifting my focus from process to outcome. Today I wanted to use it to write about this, tomorrow I may let go and just do.
What might it mean to enact a collective work with the sea?
A rinse that softens water and rocks
Non toxic colours that grow from the soil
Tumeric root, beetroot, red cabbage, onion skins
Pebbles and seascape painted with vegetable stains
Woven and tied with kelp
Taken to the water
Placed and washed
The sea subtracts the red
Replacing it with crimson kelp
In the space where seaweed was painted
The iPhone contribution to the work is to video the washing of the seascape and to generate stills that wash away the colour way beyond the action of the sea!
