"Both sculptures were made on site, to which I travelled every day by bicycle. It was my first experience of making sculpture outside the studio, and indeed of siting work in the landscape. Grizedale was the place I worked out what sort of artist I wanted to be, eclectic and variable certainly, but, hopefully not devoid of interest."
