The 2013 ‘Praying Shell’ sculpture by Anthony Padgett at Red Bank Farm, Bolton-le-Sands, Lancashire.
This site is close to where Chinese cockle pickers lost their lives in the 2004 tragedy.
Anthony described the sculpture as combining themes from nature with the spiritual heritage of Morecambe Bay"to create a potent symbol of reflection, renewal and environmental integration. The work will provide a point of interest and inspiration for walkers along the coastal path. Its symbolism is intended to parallel humanity’s openness to a larger dimension and the way cockle shells open as the tide comes in.”
