"The construction system used in 'Quarry Structure' was originally conceived as a bridging device to follow the line of a stream. Unexpectedly I found the quarry site which immediately made sense of the idea. The quarry had been fenced off, overgrown and forgotten. The structure, nosing out into the path, acts as a device to open up the space, both physically and visually."
