Artwork made using earth pigment made from collected peat from the Rockingham Street Anomaly at the Elephant and Castle. An anomaly of peat described as a scour hollow which formed in a cold period was researched in collaboration with the London Geodiversity Partnership. Samples of peat were collected from down to a 2 metre depth with a manual auger from a low point in a fenced park area between two council blocks on the Rockingham Estate, London, SE1.
