Wolds Way Sculpture – Thixendale valley
I am being commissioned to make a work for this extraordinarily beautiful chalk valley East of York. In a way the valley itself is the sculpture, so that anything there has to be very subtle to the point of invisibility.

My plan is to make fow lines in gentle rolling mounded grass banks that follow the original movement of the ice and water. These marks will be no more visible than current footpaths and ancient feld system mounds. We hope to also restore and incorparate a dew pond.

Summersfeld site, Papworth Everard

This is a commission with David Wilson and Barratt Homes, for new housing close to where the hospital stands. The Hospital will be moving, but because of my previous connections to it and my involvement with the heart surgeon Francis Wells, it is proposed that I make a work which makes links to the pioneering work made on heart transplants
at this hospital. The works therefore will be designed around blood fow in the heart and will incorporate the children’s play area within the green space.

Two Interdisciplinary projects at Universities

1. University of East Anglia
We are proposing to apply for Leverhulme Fellowship funding for an interdisciplinary project involving the Faculty of Arts and Humanities and The Faculty of Environmental Sciences, and involving The Sainsbury Centre For Visual Arts. The project will loosely be about land use and Climate Change, and it is hoped that if we are successful with the grant application, I will make a work on Campus and some kind of show or publication from the collaboration.

2. University of Wyoming, Laramie, USA
This will be a similar project, although funding is in place for a work on campus, but needs to be raised for an interdisciplinary project on the whole land use and climate change debate. The University already has a good record on interdisciplinary research in art and science.

Wyoming is huge wide open spaces of high plains grassland and mountains, but whose main economy is based around mineral extraction, particularly oil and coal. For this reason it is a wealthy state. Coal is mined out of sight and shipped out in mile long freight trains to be burned for energy in other places. The CO2 produced is contributing to a warming planet, which is giving warmer winters and warmer soils in Wyoming and the Rockies. The result of coal wealth is a loss of the pine forests all over the Western States, due to pine beetle infestation and a massive die back of forests on a scale never seen before.

The work I will make is Carbon Sink, a vortex of dead, charred pine logs interspersed with black lumps of coal, coiling down into the earth. It will be 12m. diameter wide on a site on campus and will be built this coming summer. The collaborative project is still in the planning stages, but it is hoped this will be ongoing.
