Public Art

installing graphic concrete panels

I have undertaken a broad range of projects, from small-scale community-led initiatives, through major public art installations and temporary interventions, to city-wide master-planning schemes. I have successfully collaborated with a variety of organisations and fellow professionals (artists, architects, design consultants, arts officers, community groups and local authority planners) and have experience of working at all phases of a project, from initial concept development through to installation, tailoring designs and preparing artwork for a range of materials (including concrete, wood, metal, vinyl, and glass) all with full consideration to maintenance and sustainability issues.

Notable commissions include: balance/flow, (with Rob Colbourne) a sculptural boundary feature for Birmingham Coach Station (commissioned by National Express, 2010); Tamed, (with Rob Colbourne) graphic concrete treatment and landscaping for a flood defence scheme in Witton, Birmingham (Environment Agency, 2016); Double Thread, (with Rob Colbourne) site-specific works for a residential development near Wolverhampton (David Wilson Homes, 2014); various interventions for the Seahouses Development Trust, Northumberland (2011); and Hidden Histories, printed map and workshops for Munslow Parish Council, Shropshire (2006).
