WRITTEN IN STONE
marble, wood 12”x12”x7” (30.5cmx30.5cmx18cm) , 2025
"Written in Stone" is a marble floppy disk on a floating shelf the colour of the original IBM computer. It encapsulates the tension between permanence and ephemerality in the digital age. By rendering this symbol of 1980s innovation in stone—a material synonymous with timelessness—the piece transforms a tool of obsolescence into a monument to memory and progress.
