January Harker Herald - Think Las Vegas
Think Las Vegas by Sharon Wilson is a temporary memorial to the closure of
Swan Hunters shipbuilding plant at Wallsend. The Hammerhead cranes are
about to be severed from their historic location and sold to the Indian shipbuilding
company Bharati. As the industrial landscape is reshaped, impacts on the community
are not only economic but also about loss and nostalgia.
This playful yet melancholic image attempts to deal with the post industrial present by
looking at the edifices of urban regeneration and imagining new meanings. The iconic
machinery is restaged as an impossible fairground attraction" Sharon Wilson
With help from audio artist Tim Hutchinson and photographer Derick Henderson.
Haker Herald will continue throughout 2008 with monthly posters from twelve
more studio artists.
Look out for artworks from Mary Renner, Jock Mooney, Laura Lancaster, Rachel
Lancaster, Mick Davies Sarah Wales, Carol McGuigan, Mike Collier, Karen Davies,
Stephen Palmer, Lynda Dodsworth and Joe Woodhouse

Relish: Huh. Looks like I got a great hand again.
Me: Because you cheat!
Relish: We'll see who cheats when we get to Vegas.
Me: You're not going! And what's that even supposed to mean? You DO know what they do to dollies who cheat in Vegas, right?
Relish: You better get back to packing.
Me: Oh crap! Packing!
The real deal

And you thought the Venetian in Vegas was stunning. Not a great photo, but my favorite building in Rome (at night). Piazza Venezia.
