Further Information -
Whitehaven Port The Quest project:
Art for Architecture worked with Alan Clarke of Timescapes and Optimum design for this project in the former port of Whitehaven, which in its hey day was an important northern port.
John McKenna and his assistant Darren Sutton modelled various clay figures and they were cast in lost wax by the Castle Fine Arts foundry.
These were placed at various sites in Whitehaven to form an art trail through the town.
