A suite of twelve relief prints tracks the shifting landscape in a small island Caribbean state. The copper images refer to spaces that have archaeological, historical, agricultural and intrinsic value. The middle row of grey images shows the transition via greed to the hot pink images. The copper spaces have in fact become the fast food restaurant, a golf course etc. The future has become the past.
