Biographical Information
Our attempt, with these brick bas-relief sculptures, was to integrate some visual representations of the creatures to be served by this building with the architecture: in a way that was perhaps a little light-hearted, with a few surprises, and in a way that called attention to the basic nature of the brick material - that it was in fact once pliant and malleable. (Grimm, 1980)
