Ken Byers Cranes archive drawings in recognition of North Tyneside’s industrial heritage. These beautifully intricate charcoal works were produced at Swan Hunters, A & P Appledore, and P & G McNulty Engineering Ltd between 1994-96, where Byers’ was given rare access to the sites. The charcoal engineering drawings were extended into a series of large abstract sublime drawings between 1995 and 2000.
