Expressions of Interest: Fleetwood Park Gardens sculpture
The City of Surrey and Anthem Properties
Budget: $40,000
Deadline: January 11, 2012
Expressions of Interest are sought for an art work to be placed in the crossing paths at the centre of the perennial garden in the Fleetwood Park Perennial Garden. The art work will be highly visible and should convey elegance through simplicity; use vertical components; create interest within the horticultural context without direct representation; use materials which complement existing park structures; and be appropriate for installing in an active passageway.
THEME
Artists answering this call are invited to envision a sculpture that responds to the passage of time, the seasons of life and the growth of the Fleetwood community. Recalling the great European gardens, Fleetwood Park Gardens have been designed as an oasis of tranquility in the midst of Fleetwood’s busy town centre and developing neighbourhoods. The gardens offer a place of contemplation for students en route to school, newlyweds having their photos taken and grandparents walking their grandchildren.
