I discuss with William Lasdun his response to the Cornwall seascape and landscape. His work describes meandering paths and curving forms found in nature, not dissimilar to contour lines on OS maps but more tactile and three-dimensional. They’re comprised of linear elements which seek to capture the forces and cycles in the natural world and seek to resonate with features of the local physical and spiritual geography. –  the meandering path of the Pilgrims’ Way, the ancient tin and bronze furnaces where metals were returned to their primordial fluid state, the old Ley lines which pass under the sea at the heart of the mount at Marazion – reaching toward an articulation of the more universal cycles of human experience and the elemental energies of life itself.
