Hopes and Dreams
Georges Park South Lozells This project has involved working with a number of local schools which surround Georges Park. Anglesey, St Francis, Lozells and Mayfield have all participated. The students have mapped the park, created a model to show improvements, constructed funky bird boxes, inspired from the ‘vision Lozells’ briefing and eco housing. The bird boxes will form a sculpture trail around the park and will be installed in April. Schools will then monitor the boxes to see which birds use them. Planet Art have worked with over 200 students. As part of community involvement and working with BCC. ‘Planet Art’ have also been involved in wider community consultation. Creation of a model of the park by residents, talking about the possibility of new housing and the development of eco housing in south Lozells. Designs for sculptural Panels As part of their art workshop time, students also worked on ideas for an entrance on Villa road side of Georges park. The children came up with ideas for concepts, materials and location of the proposed panels. The work inspired by ‘Park Life.’ Planet Art have used all the work completed by the students to come up with designs for the panels. They will be displayed as part of the celebration event at the drum, then fabricated and installed by the end of April in Georges Park. Creating a permanent reminder for the schools of the work they have been involved in.
