Foothills

Location : HONG KONG
Artist : Alison Crowther

“Foothills” is a three-panel screen carved from beams of oak mounted on stainless steel plate. The undulations of the wood, shaped to give free play to the natural grain, echo the wavelike folds of the ploughed fields at the foot of the West Sussex downs in southern England. To the observer, the effect conveyed is that of gazing down on a long and lovingly-tended piece of English farmland, furrowed by age-old agricultural tradition.
