Stone Isles
2021
Stone Isles explores geology as both a scientific discipline and a cultural inheritance of the UK, the birthplace of modern geology.
James Hutton’s 18th-century observations at Siccar Point reshaped our understanding of the Earth’s timescales; this history continues today through the work of geologists, palaeontologists, educators, and enthusiasts across the UK. My project seeks to document this living culture through portraits, landscapes, and still lives of collections and sites.
