kescows an bys (the earth talks) 4: Porthmeor Studio 5, St Ives 2019

“masters of provenance touch the halls walls floors in time to waves breaking atop a dead, black volcano” .

A 4th body of work inspired and created using pigments gathered and processed from remnants of Cornwall’s historic mining industries. These paintings were made during a 6-week tenancy of the prestigious Studio 5 at Porthmeor Studio in St Ives.
