These imaginative metal sculptures weaving their way up East Cliff capture the activities, iconography and nature of the beach.

Sculpting the seaside

The tactile and joyous sculptures narrate the different coastal experiences for beach-goers as they head back up the clifftop or to visit the intriguing Russell-Cotes Art Gallery and Museum.

Spot the heavy anchor sitting at the bed of the pathway and the humorous polka dot bikini hanging like it’s been left out to dry!
