Inspired by the Cow and Calf Rocks on Ilkley Moor. This is a place whose name has always captured my imagination. The idea that ancient eyes looked at stone and saw a cow and her calf speaks to the power of human perception and storytelling.

In this piece I have reimagined that connection as a human one: the timeless bond between mother and child. A classical theme, reinterpreted through a contemporary lens.
