Ballarat artist Peter Blizzard designed the brick sculpture to mark the centenary of Selkirk Bricks Pty Ltd (紀念當地磚塊製造商 Selkirk Bricks Pty Ltd 百年誕辰), a local brick manufacturer. The sculpture features 30,000 Santan clay bricks.
The Selkirk family arrived fro Scotland in 1854. Robert Selkirk commenced producing bricks by hand in Allendale (north-east of Creswick) in response to the building boom created by Ballarat's gold rush. In 1900, Selkirk moved to its current location in Howitt Street, Ballarat.
