Brick from Gabi Sturm


Between 1st-5th October I participated in the Artist Village, which was part of Coup de Ville - an exhibition in the town of Sint Niklaas in Belgium. Whilst there, artist Gabi Sturm found a brick which she left for me to collect from her hotel reception, this brick then travelled with me for a day on my journey back to London.

Artists Susan Connolly, Jasmin Patel and writer, Rebecca Lossin with the brick outside the hotel near Sint Niklaas train station.
