This work began with a find on a beach. A coin-sized piece of chalcedony which was scanned into photogrammetry software, scaled up, then 3D printed. Photogrammetry is increasingly implemented in archaeology and enables ancient artefacts to occupy a digital and immaterial space, therefore removing the notion of site. I am intrigued as to how this alters our perception of time and space. 'Soothsayer' is intended to invoke links with the mysterious phenomena of monolithic standing stones. My rock was also found, then transported, then transformed; but through a process of digitisation and rendering into a physical bronze structure.
