Initially distinct from the other deposits in the cave, their geological signature confirmed that they had been collected from a wide range of locations and were thus portable sculptures.  The marks on the surface indicate that they have been deliberately enhanced, and according to researchers: ‘to further accentuate the essential aspects of the female body.’  <img width="1299" height="1624" width_o="1299" height_o="1624" src_o="https://cortex.persona.co/t/original/i/36a1d278fc4285d85781080aeb70aa216318d2c61ecd7f9910c96522296865e6/BM-Franks-09-wa5.jpg" data-mid="139570" border="0" data-scale="55"/> Tap the images for a full screen slideshow.

They vary in size with the most common slightly larger than a petanque or cricket ball, heavier than both, but lighter than a canon ball. The smallest and simplest is roughly the size of two ping pong balls. Their weights do not confrom to any relational system. On their surface a range of perfectly shaped protruding spheres have been carved, ranging in number from 2 up to 48. They are almost all symetrical and reveal an incredible mathmatical purity. To the extent that some are convinced these objects offer extremely early proof of an understanding of platonic solids. To date almost 400 have been unearthed in various forms, yet no one is close to a reasonable theory as to what they are, or why they were made. As they exhibit only very minor signs of wear and tear over the millennia, it does not seem obvious that they were used as tools, weapons, or in any kind of throwing game. Given that in most cases they were carved out of granite, the best assumption that can be made is that they had some important denotive or symbolic function. In this state they shine mirror-like, inviting whichever cultural circumstance projects a new theory for their existence. Tap the images for a full screen slideshow. Recommended on mobile devices.

The Biblical Mount Ararat, the site at which Noah’s Ark finally came to rest, lay within the boundaries of this Kingdom.  In 1917 the entire city was destroyed in the Armenian genocide. The only structures still visible are the husks of four mosques, one of which is pictured and the outline of a grid of streets in the grass. The elevated viewpoint mirrors broadcast images from the Gulf Wars filmed from cameras fixed to Patriot Missiles, Apache helicopters and more recently from Predator Drones. The isometric viewpoint also recalls camera angles used in the god-like perspectives of various computer games. <img width="2400" height="1602" width_o="2400" height_o="1602" src_o="https://cortex.persona.co/t/original/i/b0dead1ebc5c6667e75653550ad32373b12a209c42ad9bfe4981f919da6d2c14/_DSC6272.jpg" data-mid="139446" border="0" /> Tap the images for a full screen slideshow.

They document the transition toward a sense of permanence that has grown out of the makeshift and temporary. His high-contrast, monochromatic photographs really push the documentary feel of the images, but by being unpopulated, their emotional weight is somewhat indirect. They are packed with detail and a sense of tragedy.CLIFF LAUSON, Curator, Hayward Gallery Tom Hatton's pictures have for me real presence and real purpose. They do a very difficult thing: they speak about the refugee crisis without cliché or sanctimony or voyeurism. They are conceived in an artistic rather than a journalistic mode that is nevertheless not aestheticized. I admire the way his voice is low key and that is what gives his pictures their quiet power.KATE BUSH, Head of Photography, Science Museum Group <img width="2000" height="1429" width_o="2000" height_o="1429" src_o="https://cortex.persona.co/t/original/i/a33ceca25a1eaf8ee9de0224a8792d311830da9714ec6f0d8fbc19aea2d263c6/CJ-044-2-w_14.jpg" data-mid="137874" border="0" /> Rather than provide a fixed truth or decisive moment, these photographs instead demand an encounter with the Calais Refugee Camp without a pre-loaded or sensational political agenda. We are not shown the refugees but the traces of their everyday lives in the camp. Their absence is central to the work and invites the construction of fictions emptied of embedded prejudices.   The black and white large format film separates the viewer from both from their idea of the camp and of expected journalistic imagery. By creating a space for reflection these images allow the viewer to escape pre-mediated opinions of refugees and instead relay a human space, fragile, psychologically complex and held together by the coldest manifestations of chance. <img width="2000" height="1429" width_o="2000" height_o="1429" src_o="https://cortex.persona.co/t/original/i/d2ffff37bfad4ace5cca5292e36c451bb48abe82883e051820e53e4d79859706/CJ-3-01-2_8.jpg" data-mid="137876" border="0" /><img width="4415" height="3154" width_o="4415" height_o="3154" src_o="https://cortex.persona.co/t/original/i/34097bfcc27c9fdb17fc6ee6fad83ce8800d6bdca5f37c7edceada5747ea58f4/2---Now-Here---Tom-Hatton.jpg" data-mid="137878" border="0" /><img width="5000" height="3571" width_o="5000" height_o="3571" src_o="https://cortex.persona.co/t/original/i/fa0f2ab9325cc92d391c94c9fc84ca8692c898a6ad33fe21fef2b0c07ecc5b3f/CJ-001-w_15.jpg" data-mid="137882" border="0" /><img width="5000" height="3571" width_o="5000" height_o="3571" src_o="https://cortex.persona.co/t/original/i/925b7f1aad7520a078f816af41a06d120408fbb4c2a7dbaf8ed7355c9d9372e6/CJ-047-w.jpg" data-mid="137877" border="0" /><img width="2000" height="1429" width_o="2000" height_o="1429" src_o="https://cortex.persona.co/t/original/i/d7b7208a655fdd5bec4283571551a9b78311f293272818879b356b43faaaea96/CJ-010--c-edit2-2.jpg" data-mid="137872" border="0" /><img width="4000" height="2847" width_o="4000" height_o="2847" src_o="https://cortex.persona.co/t/original/i/8178785a4b89752572314a8399d575a18775891364eda5278474fa94c386bc0a/CJ-016.jpg" data-mid="137855" border="0" /><img width="4000" height="2857" width_o="4000" height_o="2857" src_o="https://cortex.persona.co/t/original/i/de9edd78aa8b2faae36dd8f04cd52a171d0655cf405a2d82cb64c4ec0e2aa72c/CJ-3-44.jpg" data-mid="137865" border="0" /><img width="4000" height="2766" width_o="4000" height_o="2766" src_o="https://cortex.persona.co/t/original/i/d1c688443f7f63ae0a992732f808b401f6ce74fe9476f6d2c4d71f352f4c6578/CJ-3-36.jpg" data-mid="137857" border="0" /><img width="4000" height="2857" width_o="4000" height_o="2857" src_o="https://cortex.persona.co/t/original/i/7be152790b1abe8ae040d7ca17d78d9e85198fc5c8f61018001c868ee8b54f4c/CJ-3-37.jpg" data-mid="137866" border="0" /> Tap the images for a full screen slideshow.

They document the transition toward a sense of permanence that has grown out of the makeshift and temporary. His high-contrast, monochromatic photographs really push the documentary feel of the images, but by being unpopulated, their emotional weight is somewhat indirect. They are packed with detail and a sense of tragedy.CLIFF LAUSON, Curator, Hayward Gallery Tom Hatton's pictures have for me real presence and real purpose. They do a very difficult thing: they speak about the refugee crisis without cliché or sanctimony or voyeurism. They are conceived in an artistic rather than a journalistic mode that is nevertheless not aestheticized. I admire the way his voice is low key and that is what gives his pictures their quiet power.KATE BUSH, Head of Photography, Science Museum Group T O M   H A T T O N Now Here  Calais  (2016) The Weight of Ashen Soil  (2012) CV    |    from Now Here, Calais...
