The many layers of our culture, layers of history and stories is sometimes hidden beneath our feet. Only when a disturbance or erosion occurs can it be seen or uncovered. The scattering of middens shows a time of past occupation of the site or area. Concentrations of marine or estuarine shells from a wide range of species, along with bones, crustacea, animals & fish may also be present. As well as artifacts such as our stone and bone tools, grinding stones. This piece is a representation of these layers. 122 x 91 cm Ochre earth pigments on linen canvas
