Gestolde oerkracht (Solidified
primal force)
Full-image photographs of natural rocks.
Frozen life - fixed in place by the primal forces of once liquid
rock. What sounds went with this? Not only the cooler results
from Europe but also the more intense expressive colours of Asia
suggest abstract graphics, abstract paintings. Lines, colours,
forms and structures as a record of a distant past .
For Margot photography
is one of the ways of capturing her life in images.
During her travels through the Netherlands, Portugal, Spain and
Indonesia Margot became fascinated by rocks. It seemed to be a
recurring theme.. Photographing rocks is a solitary occupation.
It also gives tranquillity. The camera points towards the rock
wall while behind you there is a beautiful view. Standing with
your back to what everybody has already photgraphed. A different
look at life.
