By  Helen Higgins 2009

Dimensions
100cm x 70cm x 2cm

Documentation of artefacts unearthed during a pseudo-archaeological dig on the banks of the River Thames outside the Oxo Tower, Bank side. Connections are made in the careful positioning of disparate fragments, exploring the analogies between the archaeology and the processes of etching. (Exhibited in December 2008 as part of TAG Exhibition 2008. University of Southampton).
