Crotal A3 Print

£30.00

'a russet-coloured dye obtained from the lichen on rocks. Because crotal was thought always to be seeking its way back to the rocks it was believed that anyone venturing out to sea in crotal-dyed clothes would sink like a stone if he fell overboard...' - 'Skye' by Derek Cooper. An archive image of the lichen being collected from the shore inspired this image, though special spoons were used rather than blades, though the sea is seldom gentle in reclaiming its own.
