“I made ‘Sethera’ in response to the environment around me at Grizedale. The undulating hills are populated by sheep. Yan, tan, tethera, methera, pump, sethera is the Cumbrian dialect for counting sheep. I was fascinated by how closely the sheep resembled the landscape they live on. Each sheep is like a small gathering of hills.”

Other works by Reece Ingram at Grizedale include: ‘Waymarkers’ (1997), ‘Tread Quietly into that Good Night’ (1999)
