Public art installation wins Wallpaper* 'Best Elements of Surprise' Category

Ginkgo Projects is proud to have curated a permanent public art installation by artist Charlotte Kidger for Unity Place, a new development for Zurich HQ, Swindon. Just announced as the winner of Wallpaper* 'Best Elements of Surprise' category, this ambitious new public artwork explores re-use and hidden beauty within overlooked, down-graded materials.  

Artist Charlotte Kidger’s practice is led by a hands-on approach to investigating how industrial waste materials can be reprocessed and transformed into sculptural and functional objects. For Unity Place, she worked closely with the Zurich Art Panel and Ginkgo Projects to deliver a new series of works, including the brutalist, playful sculptures titled ‘Waste-based Terrazzo Family’.
