Shown at Arts and Science, Gerald Moore Gallery, LondonRolling Stones, uses the notion of the various stratas of the earth, once a moving fluctuating substance which has now solidified and become a mass. Rolling stones are also known as sliding rocks, walking rocks, moving rocks and sailing stones, and are a geological phenomenon where rocks move and inscribe long tracks along a smooth valley floor without human or animal intervention. The movement of the rocks results when large ice sheets a few millimetres thick, floating in an ephemeral winter pond start to break up during sunny days. A balance of very specific conditions is thought to be needed for stones to move.
