Description: | Three organic-shaped carved stones raised vertically atop square bases. The sculptures, which are located around the perimeter of the factory, are similar in form but one bears foliate reliefs carved to a depth of approximately ½ cm. Additional Information: Carved for the manufacturers of Phileas Fogg crisps for their factory at Medomsley Road, Consett, the sculptures are the artist's response to the landscape and flora of Derwentside. Derwent Valley Foods commissioned the work through the agency Sculpture North who declared themselves bankrupt shortly after the installation. As a result the sculptor was not paid for his work.(1) | Subjects: | Sculpture | Source: | Vads | Creator: | Sculptor: Ward, Gilbert | Identifier: | http://www.vads.ac.uk/large.php?uid=7517... | Go to resource |
