The peninsula at Rantum is man-made from building rubble. The red bricks that were in contact with the rise and fall of the tides are reshaped—now much more organic than originally cast by human labour. It was as though nature handed it back to 'us' with a message that we should be 'softer' around the edges, as the saying goes. I see these reformed bricks as sculptural forms, waiting to be decoded. By documenting the bricks on site and against a neutral ground, the unusual forms are accentuated. I regularly brought fragments of bricks to my apartment to reorder and sketch them. After a while, I returned all bricks to the space where I found them. Documentation serves a role of capturing data and of reflexive thinking about space and material.

Harbours and sheep farms have another element in common: there is always something stacked or storied under cover, changing the contents to an abstract form. As the sea changed the brincks to become organic, these covered storage also transformed the geometric equipment into temporary sculptural masses.
