Our vision is to build on our existing successful practice and nationally recognised position. Our strong partnerships create cross-disciplinary place and identity projects that explore sustainability and the relationships between public art, design practice, placemaking, people and their environment.
It is our role as public art managers to make these links and build these partnerships. We act as the cultural broker. Our approach is to work as closely as possible with communities and environmental professionals so the projects that emerge have a lasting legacy and high artistic value.
