Description: | Ropes tied into two different sorts of knots forming part of a yellow brick wall set diagonally on the corner of two roads. The knots appear to be sculpted in cement? but look as if they are part of the yellow brick of the wall and made of bricks themselves. There are two knots, each set in a recessed panel. The colour scheme of yellow brickwork with red brick trim is repeated down the length of this busy main road which has a mix of industry, housing, small shops and shopping parks along it. All new brickwork, such as walls, paving, gate piers etc, are in this colour scheme, giving unity to a rather piecemeal environment, with this sculpture about half way along. Additional Information: Ropes and knots representing the rope-making industries which were founded along the river in association with the Royal dockyards. | Subjects: | Panel | Source: | Vads | Identifier: | http://www.vads.ac.uk/large.php?uid=6979... | Go to resource |
