Time as Material Necklace II and Cavate by Sarah Powell
Time as Material (II)
Cavate (II)
The works Time as Material (II) and Cavate (II) deal with ideas around Earth extraction, through the material Shale which I collected from the Jurassic Coast of England and stone carving techniques. Time as Material is a meditation on the weight and impact of Earth extraction, using the technique of core drilling. As a layered mudstone, shale contains the data of deep time - such vastness becomes intimate when worn. As the beads move between the fingers, they invite moments of counting, contemplation, and rhythm, bringing the ecological crisis to the surface and a recognition of the body as a messenger of this history. The brooch Cavate reflects on the act of unearthing and the responsibility that comes with it. It considers the slow passage of time, acknowledging that what is uncovered will eventually be re-covered, only to be discovered again. It speaks to the endless cycle of revelation and concealment, a delicate balance between digging deeper and allowing things to remain undisturbed.
時間作爲質料 (II)
軟岩穴鑿（II）
作品 “時間作爲質料 II” 和“ Cavate II“ 由我在英格蘭侏羅紀海岸採集的頁岩雕刻而成，內容涉及有關地球開採的一些思考。”時間作爲質料” 運用岩芯鑽探技術製作。頁岩，一種層狀泥岩，蘊含深層次的時間數據——一種在佩戴時變得分外親切的浩瀚之感。當這串頁岩珠鏈在指間移動，觸動了關於計數、冥想和律動的時分，生態危機由此浮出水面，人們也因此意識身體是這段曆史的信使。“Cavate” 胸針則體現挖掘的行爲以及隨之而來的責任。它承載對緩慢流失的時間的思量，承認被發現之物終將被再次覆蓋又將被再次發現，一場關於揭示和匿藏的無休止的循環，以及深入挖掘與讓事物保持不受幹擾之間的微妙平衡。
Material:
Cavate (II) : Oil shale (found), shibuichi
Time as Material (II) : Oil shale (found), silk
