Nature Neighbours

5th Aug 2024

Juneau Projects (Philip Duckworth and Ben Sadler) are creating a series of public artworks for Halewood Parks and Green Spaces.

Project Details
Creative Team
  • Artists: Juneau Projects
  • Producer: Caroline Smith

In collaboration with community groups and residents across Halewood, Juneau Projects will create a series of sculptural artworks capturing the identity of six Knowsley parks and green spaces: Halewood Triangle Park, Court Farm Woods, Hilton Grace, Finch Woods, Goddard Green and Frensham Park.

Residents are invited to a series of workshops to explore the history and ecology of each location and to create clay sculptures based on the wildlife there.

Each will be turned into small, hand-painted cast metal sculptures, as part of a display with more information about the project and the park it represents. Together, the artworks will form a walking trail, spanning six locations. At each site, there will be a QR code to access further information about the trail, as well as a beautiful map (available in print and as a digital download), featuring illustrations made by residents.

Details of further workshops and the launch event for this public artwork will be available soon!

Juneau Projects are fascinated by the natural world and often use it as a starting point for their work - like their recent Heart of Glass project, Heart of the Moss (2023).

Nature Neighbours is produced by Heart of Glass, created in partnership with Knowsley Council. Funded by the UK Government.
