Over this summer I have become interested in the rocks around the shoreline in my home town of Crail. They vary so much in colour, form, texture and with various amounts of erosion and build up. Over years they have changed due different factors including weather and industry. In particular ship building and fishing. My family very involved heavily in the industries. My father worked in the ship building trade. My grandfather was a fisherman as were many of his relatives. I started to think of the rocks in relation to the industry and my family's roots. The layers in the rocks represent the layers of my family's traditions in this area which have been built up over many years.
