A single tile from an original group of 18. Inspired by the north-east shipping region of the North Sea, ‘Cromarty’ encapsulates a frozen moment in time on the surface of the sea. The wave was created through a fusion of live video footage, fluid dynamic animation and industrial fabrication processes.
