Through the Wood

Commissioned by Mid Penine Arts for the Forest of Burnley.

Townley Hall, Burnley

Oak, height 750cm.

The piece takes its inspiration from the timber and surrounding woodland, representing a journey through the woods, through life, and the process of its own making.

Responding to poetry inspired by the woodland by Jackie Kay and local writers, I wanted to create a poetic form in wood.
