Foreword - by Bruce Peter (lecturer, Glasgow School of Art)
'To walk beneath these sublime structures, where they remain today, is to be confronted with cast iron and timber engineering at its most raw and elemental; rusting pillars, caked with seaweed and barnacles at the tide line, timber decking covered in algae on its underside – and, in the middle distance, the constant ebb and flow of the sea.'
Essay - by Alan Wilson (Hamilton College)
'...Thomson works with loaded brushes or palette knife creating motifs that resemble calligraphic characters...they are always energetic, richly suggestive in connotation, exciting to look at.' |
