In 1932, Paul Nash wondered "whether it is possible to ‘go modern’ and still ‘be British.’" He wrote, "the battle lines have been drawn up: internationalism versus an indigenous culture; renovation versus conservatism; the industrial versus the pastoral; the functional versus the futile." Nash attempted to reconcile these binaries by developing a distinctively British form of surrealism in which mock monumental objects are set in the landscapes of southern England as if they were prehistoric megaliths. The objects stand out as gigantic, inexplicable presences and yet are deeply rooted in the landscape. Mineral Objects depicts pieces of bituminous shale (so-called coal money) from Kimmeridge, Dorset. The shale was worked to make jewelry and amulets in prehistoric and Roman times. When turned on a lath, the discarded pieces were usually left with a square hole. These objects are, Nash wrote, "dramatic . . . as symbols of their antiquity . . . hallowed remnants of an almost unknown civilization."\n\n

In the 1930s Nash "went modern" while still "being British" by developing a distinctively British form of surrealism, where mock monumental objects are set in the landscapes of southern England as if they were prehistoric megaliths. The objects stand out as gigantic, inexplicable presences and yet are deeply rooted to the landscape. In this case they are pieces of bituminous shale-- so-called coal money--from Kimmeridge in Dorset. The shale was easily worked on a lathe to make simple jewelry and amulets, and the discarded pieces often have a square hole in the bottom from the lathe. These objects, Nash wrote, "are dramatic . . . as symbols of their antiquity, as hallowed remnants of an almost unknown civilization."
