Monoliths

Monolith I

An homage to Kubrick's mathematically relevant Tycho Monolith from the film 2001. The monolith is officially described as having a ratio of 1:4:9 with the depth being the smallest of those integers, and the length being the largest. This is an expression of (1x1):(2x-2):(3x3). The piece illustrates the moment immediately following the tragic impact of a small body against this large, omnipresent object.

Monolith II

The second of three pieces in a series. From an original photo by James Cambourne taken at Saunton, between Exmoor and Dartmoor on the coast, presented in very wide 2.35:1 format. Faithful to James' graded original with a slight adjustment to height to fully display the Monolith.

Monolith III

The third and final piece in a series. From an original photo taken at St. Michael's Mount, Cornwall by Rob Chiu. I loved the mood and tone of the shot; cold and somewhat timeless. It already had a daunting but benevolent feel to that made it the perfect backdrop to this piece.
