Hebburn
Shelters on platforms 1 and 2
2000
The artist developed her ideas for this commission through working with a number of Hebburn’s senior citizens.
Discussions regarding memories the ladies had of the area and stories relating to both their personal and working lives encouraged the artist to create a work that, through her language, would imaginatively capture the essence of Hebburn and celebrate its everyday life.
The original artwork was produced using a range of techniques which included linocuts, fingerprints and collage and was then enlarged and reproduced onto vitreous enamel panels.
