We first encounter pebbles in childhood, selecting them, chucking them in the air, stacking them as piles, selecting colour, pattern.
Later in life we select again, look for
the flat ones, the right weight ones, the ones that skim across the
water, to disappear.
Humans selected Pebbles as tools, they
are among the earliest known man-made artefacts, dating from the
Palaeolithic period of human history.
Now they have been selected again, to
make paintings, sculptures, repurposed images, placed and perhaps
rediscovered by others, to hopefully beckon the minds eye, what, how,
why.

college boundary wall, Slapton Village.
In a wall niche near the ruined Slapton
village Tower. This was built in 1347 and formed the western end of
the Chancery College founded by Sir Guy De Briene. It is conveniently near the Tower inn pub for thirsty art lovers.
