| St
Marks was a project to complete an amphitheatre constructed by the
parents and children of the school. The brief was to involve the
children as much as possible through the designs and practical stages
of the carving
|
| I
first gave an assembly with a slide show and demonstrated my work tools
and processes, then explained their role as designers and sculptors.
The residency included workshops and many classroom visits.
|
| The
design spreads around the sculpture and includes children's designs and
their interpretations of nature. On the other face of the stone
is carved the school logo and a short proverb.
|
| On completion of the
residency the Mayor of the London Borough of Ealing, Councillor Phillip
Portwood unveiled the sculpture on a special day with music and poetry
about the stone. |
