It’s ‘sunk into and rising from’ the site of an arson-hit Walsall fabric factory called ‘Hole In The Wall’. The fire burned for days. The work took him four months, and he finished it just before the bad weather set in at the end of summer 07. Among other things, it features “the long-lost buildings of a Black Country town”. Make sure you dust off your red-and-blue 3D glasses, to see if you can get the full 3D-effect from parts of the work. The work also has its own Flickr group.
