Flint Earth work projects installed on Blakeney Point, a small sand  bar on the Norfolk coast in England. The installations involved arranging stones (flint) in circles after sorting them into different colors.
The installations 2 through 4 were more like sketches for Blakeney Point flint Project #5. Project #6 was the last installation I did and involved returning the area to it's natural state, once the installation had been photographed.

    Remnants of project #5 approx. 1 year after installation was completed. What struck me about this was that in the 6 odd years I had worked on Blakeney point the occurrence of really high or super tides had become more frequent.
