ABSTRACT
A stylised silhouette of the female form is marked in the sand at the tide line, its axis just off parallel with the approaching waves. The water has already started to do its work, one side of the body form is softer, darker, slightly elongated down the beach. On the land-ward side, the curve of elbow and waist are still defined and distinct, the sand surface paler, apart from where the pulses of the waves’ encroachment has sent darker material across the body’s boundaries, spreading the vivid red pigment from the base of the depression around the figure.
