Exhibition
Gary Webb - Key Largo - The Approach
Tell me about the brick sculpture, ‘Dorset Knob’.
The bricks come from Michelmersh which is a little town in Dorset. The quarry is out the back of the shop and they dig it out themselves. The colour and softness is all down to the clay deposits in that area. There’s some really nice pinks and purples coming out of this brick.
This area is very near to where you were born?
Yes. And the whole village is made from these red bricks. Dorset Knob is the name of the local pub at the end of the road I grew up on.
What about the Calvin cartoon character?
I didn’t know anything about him.
