“This painting touches upon quite a lot of how I’ve been developing my work. It has come through my local walks and interaction with the old shale heaps and fenced off holes in the ground. It touches on how I think about the subterranean lines – we have a horizon line that breaks into soil lines below us. It’s about what we can see and what we can’t see below us. There has been historical human endeavour under the seams of the earth, then water has reclaimed it and we see the effects of that. It’s about how nature is taking back what we have done.” – Dan Cook
