In Lines in Time, I’ve chosen to work with gathered stones from a variety of locations in Scotland predominantly guided by the travels and visionary work undertaken by James Hutton (1726-97). Hutton’s encounters in the field studying rock samples and outcrops led him to develop his ground-breaking thesis Theory of the Earth, gaining him world-wide recognition, and the accolade of Father of Modern Geology.
