Through the summer of 2022, Giles created a body of work intended as an offering to the dead artist, filmmaker and queer rights activist, Derek Jarman, as per the tradition of the shingle left on top of Jarman's headstone. Each work represents a different element drawn from Jarman's life and writings, in particular his autobiography, Dancing Ledge. This six-colour screen print depicts Cala Domestica, Sardinia, and is a shot taken from Jarman's film Sebastiane (1976). It depicts 'cliffs, above sharp luna rocks with green rock pools, and a blue sea beyond'. This image, recurring through different mediums, represents the desire of high summer and the electric tension of heatwaves.

Six-colour screen print. Edition of 50. Numbered and signed by the artist.
