Durham-based sculptor Fenwick Lawson died peacefully on 23rd January at the age of 93. In 2008, I interviewed Fenwick in his cottage high above the banks of the River Wear in the centre of Durham. This is an edited version of my article based on that interview, which was published in Art & Christianity Journal in Spring 2009.
