FRACTURE
This photographic series focuses on natural occurring fractures in exposed rock faces along the mercury Islands. The images isolate sections of stone to illustrate how stress, compression, and geological movement create cracks, joints and layered breaks.
By removing surrounding landscape and scale, the work emphasises structure, texture, patterns and abstraction. Variations in colour, density and fracture direction show differences in rock composition, formation and surface weathering, which reflects coastal geology.
Together the images form a study of natural fracture and variations shaped by geological process over time.
