Rockface 6 Print

The island of Malta has a long and complex history and is mentioned in the oldest book in Western history in the opening pages. Homer starts The Odyssey, in Gozo, our sister island. The western coastline is still pristine and the weathered rock is full of suggestive forms that inspire me to look for the stoic faces and people of our island's past. I wish to be transported to an island where pre-historic and Hellenistic symbols appear out of the clay earth, where tragic and heroic people tell you their story under the bright sunlight and crashing waves of the Mediterranean sea.
