"Pomegranates have always been my favourite fruit because of their beautiful caskets of jewel-like seeds within, and the hard, almost pot-like exterior. It is an ancient fruit, celebrated in the Song of Solomon and regarded by the Early Church as a symbol of the Resurrection. In these prints, I have tried to celebrate the fruit's sensual qualities, and its oozing ruby juice, and have juxtaposed it with a hammer to remind one of its skull-like vulnerability." Judith Mason
