The sculpture was originally sited on Hunter Street but was removed c.2004 when the University of Dundee’s Dalhousie Building was built and the work was eventually relocated in 2012. It was originally promoted in ‘The Courier’ newspaper with the longer title ‘Bridging the gap between...’ and the artist using the anagram Aldron Tinmar. It was Martin's response to the brief, requesting an artwork that would link the old industrial area of Blackness to the University campus. Martin did the welding and grinding of the weathering steel while the fabrication was done at a unit in the old Bullionfield Mills.
