The Pulse 2009
3-faced clock sculpture commissioned for Sacriston, former mining village in
Co Durham, as part of a regeneration programme funded by the national
lottery. The triangular structure of reflective stainless steel has a plaque on
each side giving information about the history of the area and the
geographical position in the world of Sacriston in relation to famous places
chosen by schoolchildren. The clocks are radio-controlled. Blue LED lights at
the apex are always on to commemorate the miners.
Four sandstone seats were also installed as part of the commission.
The project won an environmental award from Durham County Council.
