The work for this exhibition was inspired by the Samuel Taylor Coleridge's Rime of the Ancient Mariner and the illustrations by Gustave Dore. The choice of this work by the English Romantic poet was led by themes of opposition, including sun and ice, heat and cold, turbulent and calm seas, celebration and trial.
The exhibition comprised of painted and printed panels, made from birchwood and copper. Images were steeped in symbolic references to colour, including the centrepiece of their installation, which was a large block of ice tinted "incarnadine", the colour of either flesh or blood.
