Winner of the Keith Hayman Award for Public Art 2021

Feature wall themed on the Great Sheffield Flood of 1864, a project for a new Lidl built at Malin Bridge in Sheffield UK.

Each of the items is taken from the reparation claims archive and are things that were important in local businesses and that people valued in their homes.

The grandfather clock is set to a few minutes to midnight, the time Dale Dyke Dam collapsed.
