Installation made from polystyrene fish boxes collected from the fish huts of Hastings. The boxes derived from such destinations as Scotland, Norway and even Japan.
Hastings Contemporary Art Gallery can be seen in the background, the construction of which led to many contentious debates. The gallery may be seen as a symbol of gentrification against the background of the working Fisherman's beach of Hastings Old Town. How then was this sculptural installation to be perceived?
