Penny for a Pier
  • I love to be beside the sea and spent many Summer Days at Southport during my childhood.
    Eating ice creams on the tiny Pier Train - passing over the boats on Marine Lake, the Miniature Railway, Pleasureland, and eventually, if we were lucky . . . at the end of the Pier we'd see the sea! By turning the blue station handles and peeping inside the mock bricks, scenes and events from days gone by are discovered!
  • Commissioned by Southport's Atkinson Art Gallery, this sculpture enabled me to relive those memories and rediscover the elegant holiday town once more.
  • 9ft x 3ft Wood, memorabilia, found objects.
  • 2003
