I've been off the web for a week, it is good to be back and see all your wonderful photographs.
Basalt is very hard. It can stand the polishing force of the ocean well into mythical times, but human tools can quickly loosen its rigid character. The six-sided columns, broken into pieces, fit together like a geometrical puzzle and are often used to reinforce coastal dikes.
Isamu Noguchi uses his tools more subtle. Touching the surface, hammering away like a crazy woodpecker, then seeking deeper and finer, softening and polishing the form, he lays bare its inner beauty.
He does not force the material into a sculptural form. He seeks 'the brilliance of matter beneath the skin'. With that intention, basalt becomes almost fluid.
This is a detail from a stone which was to be used as a pendant, but I never finished it.

Stone face, you do stare
Your skin is wet, and its bare
Your eyes they hold me in a trance
As the birds , above they dance
Stone face, i am your slave
I follow the orders, you have made
I stroke your skin, its soft and tender
You lure me in, strange worlds i enter
Stone face, i feel your connection
It takes me to another dimension
Beyond this life, that i have
known
To a place , where my mind is blown
Portland stone is a limestone geological formation (formally named the Portland Stone Formation[1]) dating to the Tithonian age of the Late Jurassic that is quarried on the Isle of Portland in Dorset, England.[1] The quarries are cut in beds of white-grey limestone separated by chert beds. It has been used extensively as a building stone throughout the British Isles, notably in major public buildings in London such as St Paul's Cathedral and Buckingham Palace. Portland stone is also exported to many countries, being used for example at the United Nations headquarters in New York City.
