“With her photographs, Elaine Ling has taken us around the world to some of the most exquisite examples of those marks left behind many years ago. Using light to capture stone, Ling reminds us that we are all rooted inexorably to this third rock from the sun. This is at once an ancient and timeliness preoccupation that touches all civilizations.”
—Edward Burtynsky
