‘The Journey’

'The Journey' is a piece of brick, made by somebody else's hands. It somehow found its way to the sea and stayed there for a time, constantly tumbled back and forth amongst the rocks until it took the shape of the other beach pebbles.

I found it on one of my walks along the shore and brought it home, where it sat on my workbench, patiently waiting.

Now it has a cocoon basket, made from hand-stripped Phormium Tenax fibres and gently hugged by a looping coil frame basket, made of the same. I hope that the looping coils tell a little of its journey to the sea and back.
