A series of sculptural works crafted from British-grown wood within a new purpose-built student accommodation development in Frenchay, Bristol. 

A new public sculpture for Trinity Road in Bristol’s Old Market, inspired by the gentle roe deer, an animal associated with folklore and transformation.

Artist Sebastien Boyesen’s detailed relief map of Caerffili town is filled with local history, hidden references and legendary characters.

OUR PRACTICE

We develop art strategies and cultural development plans for large- and small-scale projects to build cultural partnerships and produce projects that are distinctive and memorable.

Through working with artists, designers and makers, we create real opportunities for a sense of place to be enhanced within both new and existing single buildings and large-scale complexes.

We work collaboratively, often through co-design processes, to build an authentic sense of narrative, place and distinctiveness across urban and rural environments.

From temporary installations to exhibitions and live experiences, we develop projects that create new and perhaps unexpected cultural perspectives.
