About the work

In this work, the slow green of a mining town comes down to the wall. Copper green, ferrous red, the small archaeology of time laid flat. There is no center. One walks along it the way one walks past a long fence at dusk.

Wide as a wall, low as a horizon. Pedra Branca takes the slow green off the roof of a mining-town house and lays it flat: copper green, ferrous red, the small archaeology of weather. There is no center and no narrative. One walks along it the way one walks past a long fence at dusk.
