Ebb and Flow (detail) - 28 July 2015

28 Jul 2015 85
'Ebb and Flow' is an installation at Gosport Discovery Centre marking the 70th anniversary of the involvement of the town in the D-Day landings. A small planted area incorporates artwork arising from a collaboration between local community groups and lithographer Mary Dalton. The area was designed by Andrew Street. The artwork appears on so-called 'chocolate blocks'. The originals were concrete molds that look like a dairy milk bar, created to be laid on the soft sands of the embarkation beaches. 200_2_P1060144
