Mother started with a visit to the Sculptor’s Cave on the Moray coast, close to where I grew up in the North-East of Scotland. My experience of the cave, and its significance to the people of the bronze age that visited it before me, inspired me to explore what the form of the cave means to us and how it is formed. I thought of the parallels between the cave I felt inside myself, the cave within my camera, and the cave I found myself standing in. What came next was an exploration of the stone of my past and the stone of my present. And how, through a deep history of the women that precede me, represented in this ancient material, I came to understand where I was meant to be.
