This work proposes object as signifier of time and place. The marks imbue the surface of these forms with a human referent, a link with the past. Text engraved on these pieces relates to my own family's history in the Nelson/Marlborough area of the South Island. These notions provide for a personal mythology, a genius loci or spirit of place.
