Found sandstone boulder, off-cut material, canvas, frame | Dimensions variable
Using a process of three-dimensional scanning, digital re-scaling, and five-axis robotic milling, a 2mm skin has been systematically removed from the surface of a sandstone boulder from the quarry at Hardwick Hall. The off-cut material was collected from the milling machine’s filtration system, screen-printed, and hung on the same quarried sandstone that makes up the structure’s wall, with the recalibrated iteration of the original boulder positioned on the ground below.
