"I like the way that an object can contain the essence of a place - ie that a place can be hidden in a thing. An example of this are 'swell maps' from the Marshall Islands. A geomorphologist at Edinburgh Uni directed me to Polynesian stick charts last year when we were chatting about how artworks could interact with geological processes."
