Hand carved in a beautiful piece of Welsh slate Prior to carving this piece my ideas had been generated from existing patterns and objects I notice in my day-to-day life. Due to Covid lockdown, those new experiences were removed, I had to reconsider how to generate ideas. I discovered a weekly online geometry drawing class given by the School of Traditional Arts. The classes gave me the skills to be able to play with geometric patterns, allowing ideas to develop naturally. Breath was the first carving designed by this new process. I had so much fun with it, it was literally a Breath of fresh air and also a moment to take a Breath from Covid concerns. I suspect this piece will always hold significant value to me.
