Greenock Waterfront Art - Ebb & Flow

On the riverside path at Greenock's Waterfront Leisure Complex is this lovely seating area surrounding a sculpture of a little seal.  It is called "Ebb & Flow" and is by Alan Potter in conjunction with RIG Arts.

It is a lovely installation on a popular walking and cycle route along the riverbank.  You can sit here and look out over the River Clyde watching the ships and tugs go by.  It was a bit hazy this morning when I took these photographs.  Normally you can see across the river to Helensburgh.

The work features mosaics of some of the local riverlife in beautiful oak benches.

You can read more about the installation on the information board.

So, if you are heading for the Greenock's Beacon Arts Centre or the Waterfront Leisure Complex then it is well worth taking some time out to view "Ebb & Flow" and some of the other interesting art installations that line the pathway between them.
