The works will consist of a
series of soft form cast concrete sculptures. The soft form casting technique
involves pouring wet concrete into a supported flexible fabric formwork and
allowing it to cure. This process
produces an amazing softness and fluidness of line to the formed concrete. The
works will vary in scale from 1.5 m to 3 m in height depending on the
individual design. There will be up to five works produced and installed as
part of the full installation. The work should be installed on-site one or two
though there is no preference between the sites. We would encourage the
community to voice which site they would like to work installed on. During the
workshops, students and the local community will work with Mark to create
drawings, paintings, small-scale models and pottery work exploring ideas of
what they would like to see at the community centre. It will be an opportunity
for Mark to work with the local community to create images, ideas, thoughts and
see the world through the eyes of the people of Braybrook. Workshops will be
run in a fun and open environment, encouraging positive behavior from students
and the community through artistic expression. People will be encouraged to be
as hands on as to like, creating art, explore new ideas and techniques and
influencing the public art sculpture in the community
