removing something to create something. carving it out. revealing an image. imagining. ditches. hollows. pipes. rewetting.

assembled peat cores created by participants in RE-PEAT lino workshops, 2024.

they are creatures that exist in a moment. z-slices in time. a section. stained. genders – maybe. cells captured in stasis. in turnover.

bring the feeling back and back again. to control and feel it again. and to feel the feeling of putting something right. of working it out when you couldn’t another way. creating a moment of rest and clicking. to squeeze the wrongness that was there, to squeeze it into the shape it should be and hold it there. in a way that you couldn’t on your own.
