Description
This mixed media decorative plaque is a Sid Dickens Memory Block, identified as T-32 Heritage from the Signature Collection. The piece is constructed on a rectangular cast plaster support. The front face depicts a black calligraphic script character on an off-white background, featuring intentional heavy crazing and a cracked surface texture meant to simulate aged tile. The perimeter is finished with a textured, distressed metallic gold glaze. The black-painted reverse contains a circular hanging indentation. Identifying marks on the verso include the handwritten notation T 32, an oval white stamp reading MEMORY BLOCKS with the artist’s crown and cross logo and MADE BY HAND IN CANADA, and a rectangular printed label reading SID DICKENS VANCOUVER CANADA.
Condition report:
The item is in its original intended condition. The surface cracking, crazing, and distressed edges are characteristic stylistic elements of the artist\'s technique and do not represent post-production damage. No significant chips or repairs are visible beyond the intentional artistic distressing.
