Jonah Jones – wall sculpture, slate and Carrara marble, 1972
The slate and Carrara marble Hedd Dros Wynedd (Peace Across Gwynedd) wall sculpture Jonah Jones created in 1972 for the North Wales Police HQ in Colwyn Bay was one of his largest commissions, second in size only to Y Bont in Coleg Harlech. It was tragically destroyed in 2002 during a refurbishment when builders, without consulting, tore it down to send to landfill.
Scene & Word commissioned South African photographer Leah Rolando to develop a range of five treatments of an original photograph by Robert Greetham. We asked her to use different forms of subtle colouring and dynamic editing to evoke the experience of viewing the sculpture from close up.
Unmounted A3 (29.70 cms x 42.00 cms) photo print on 200 GSM Universal Photo Paper.
Five treatment options are available:
Dramatic Cool
Radiate
Cool Light
Golden
Composite
