Nous sommes entourés par les rivières et cours d'eau.
The river Elk, which runs through our valley, rises and falls at an alarming rate with each rain fall. We fear that one day it may swirl into the studio. Last spring we witnessed our neighbours garden furniture from the opposite bank bobbing up and down towards us; a rescue mission had to be undertaken. Despite the potential for disaster our studio has stood strong for hundreds of years. built by people who were in tune with nature and seem to have had a measure the latent potential. Upstream a great water wheel is suspended and silent on the side of the mill house.

The robust Roman bridge was the site of stepping stones. It is from this vantage point that you can idle, while watching the stream cascade and tumble over cataracts. Its fascinating the way water ebbs and flows down over falls and obstacles disappearing into dark pools only to rise as excited frothy forms gathering into little groups that break and create orderly ques decending over the next fall, and so the process repeats over and over again passing under the bridge moving on slipping out of sight. The bubbles and jetsream create more formations gathering momentum as it meanders on its journey. This vision is the embryo for the Eau range. Each has one of these moments frozen in time, creating ephemeral sculptures.
