Created in response to the south Wales coast, it’s title is the motto for the city of Newport. The objects displayed along the ‘waterline’ consist of seaside detritus, beached fragments of natural and man-made materials which the water has transformed into strange and evocative objects. Collaboration with Mary Husted, funded by Newport Museum & Art Gallery.
