Sid Dickens Benevolence Memory Block
About this Collection
Following the success of his Freedom Collection, Sid brings us the new Spring 2017 release – “Inspiration.” While the Freedom Collection aspired for harmony and acceptance in our world community, the Inspiration Collection encourages us to first start by reflecting on the experiences in life that make us human.
All events in life – the good and the bad, the heartfelt and the painful – give us an opportunity to reflect and strengthen our connection with others through empathy and emotion. We laugh, we cry – we experience in life in all its forms by simply being human. We have the ability to not only hope and dream, but to also carry out these aspirations through action.
Sid has brought us a collection of pieces inspired by his past works and experiences. Reminiscent of his classics, collectors will recognize Sid’s appreciation for nature, the arts, history, and architecture along with his fascination for gameplay. Collectively, he hopes that these pieces will inspire others to reflect upon what it is that gives them purpose and passion.

Sid Dickens Benevolence Memory Block
Combining a painter’s eye and the experimenting skills of an alchemist, Sid Dickens manufactures full-of-character decorative tiles from his cozy Production Studio in downtown Vancouver – A utilitarian and serene studio-cum-production space where Dickens’ Memory Blocks are created at the pace of a few thousands a week. Quality is ensured by a fully integrated manufacturing process that guarantees complete control over the entire production line at every step, from moulding to pouring and hand-painting to finishing.
The traditional process of tile-making has changed very little since his first piece made back in 1994. The Memory Blocks are made by local artisans using the distinctive ingredient of porcelain-like plaster, ingeniously combined with time and patience.
This Sid Dickens Benevolence Memory Block is available from Finch & Lane Interiors Melbourne’s luxury furnishings and interiors company.
