Tributary

Tributary

Working closly with the City Council's highways engineers John Maine's ‘Tributary’ traces the course of the hidden Lort Burn from beneath Stephenson’s railway viaduct, down the Side and into the River Tyne. The artwork which marks four stages of the burn's course is subtle integrated into a new traffic scheme.
