Better coastal health, better employment
A Lincolnshire artist has raised eyebrows with his quirky submission to a charity exhibition: a recreation of Stonehenge using the kidney stones he had removed from his body by NHS staff.
He explains that his “mind would wander during those sessions”, which were separated by several weeks at a time, which gave him time to think about what he would do to mark this experience. Simon recalls wanting to bookmark his hospital journey with a “symbolically grand monument”, which brought him to the idea of recreating Stonehenge in miniature form.
“I suppose I felt that I wanted to mark my experiences with some kind of symbolically grand monument – even if it would be physically tiny. “It has all been such a powerful reminder of how our good health can teeter on a knife-edge – it’s just that when we’re feeling well, we tend not to notice it.”It will form part of a touring exhibition called Humanity, featuring the work of 80 artists and exploring the theme of what it means to be a human being.
“The learning and insight into the human condition that this exhibition provides is profound, all the more so for coming from artists not often given centre stage.
