The diary of a sculpture

A pictorial record of the weathering of a Jurassic Oolite

A spiral sculptural was installed beside the Brynmor Jones Library at the University of Hull. It was made of blocks of oolitic limestone capped with slabs of the oolite.

Quite soon the slabs started to show signs of frost shattering. Then they were removed and it was turned into a spiral raised flower bed. Eventually it was removed completely.
