My neolithic fascination around stone tools has developed further with this exploration in the form of a limestone harpoon! After several days of carving and refining the curves and outline, it is now ready to be polished to a dark shimmering black. I want to make the 1.7 m stone inviting to touch, so the edges have been smoothed and rounded as if this polishing and erosion has occurred in the sea by water and time. The pattern of the spikes on both sides are asymmetric, as to allow the form to suggest its modelling from an original archeological artefact.
