CLASP by Sir Antony Gormley
CLASP by Sir Antony Gormley
This sculpture by the celebrated sculptor Sir Antony Gormley was erected in Kings Walk in July 2018. The 4.5-metre-high cast iron sculpture is an translation of two bodies holding each other and is part of the sculptor’s ‘Blockwork series’, in which blocks replace anatomy with architectonic volumes. It is already looking rather rusty as was the intention.

The Students Union building of the University of Newcastle stands behind.
