KYNANCE IIUK-based artist Tom Leighton shares an ongoing series from Kynance Cove which was driven from the earth’s crust hundreds of millions of years ago. Created from a sequence of eruptions, the stacked cliffs and caves and tunnels of Kynance are an unusually dramatic testament to geological power: layer upon layer of once molten crust and magma hurled through moving plates upwards to the surface of the earth. Rare also is some of the rock found in these structures, made up of the minerals thrown from the magma chambers - and exposed in places as a reptilian multi-coloured, scaly sheen which may give it the name Serpentine. The series of colour manipulated works are intended as a tribute to a sense of energy and intense beauty which you can experience in the cove even on the dullest day. -- source link
