Sid Dickens Union Memory Block
About this Collection
The journey through the seasons culminates as spring offers the excitement of new beginnings and the revelation of life as it awakens from hibernation. As the felicity of nature’s abundance is imparted upon us, we are reminded of the countless interpretations and expressions of nature’s grace that have come before us.
The Sid Dickens Spring 2010 Collection offers ten new tiles that fuse the inspiration of new beginnings with the wonder provoked by beauty’s past. Drawing upon pinks and blues and the delicate essence of porcelain, Dickens imbues iconic images of spring with a timeless elegance.
This collection will awaken memories that are kept in each of us and empower us to formulate and share the stores that define our lives.
Sid Dickens Union 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 Union Memory Block is available from Finch & Lane Interiors Melbourne’s luxury furnishings and interiors company.
