Description:

Exterior view: as first installed (see below for details)
Location: Phoenix Park, Thurnscoe - on the hillside below and to the south side of the compass viewpoint. Description: An oversized ornament from a charm bracelet consisting of an external ring from which hangs a number of objects; a miner's pick, whose handle has been split to show five medals with the names and opening dates of local pits; a safety lamp inside which sits a canary; a domestic flatiron; a horse shoe with another canary sitting on it; a shovel; a miner's snap-tin; the sole of a boot; and a pen knife. Commission: Project overseen by Groundworks; project manager Laura McBride. Comment: The design was inspired by Farrington's similar piece at Huntcliff, above Saltburn, North Yorkshire - see < http://shimmer.shu.ac.uk/luna/servlet/s/i942js > for details - which the artist had shown to local community groups in the early stages of this project. The hanging elements in the Saltburn piece are allowed to move and swing. On installation and against the wishes of the artist, it was half sunken in concrete and set horizontally in the ground. In the circumstances the artist decided to withhold their name from this piece as it has been altered against their wishes and departed so radically from the original design. Some years later this 'health and safety' influenced decision was reviewed and the piece galvanised and installed upright - though still in an altered form as the 'hanging' elements had been welded rigid. |
