Ebbsfleet proposals unveiled
Richard Deacon's proposal (scroll down to read more)
Deacon’s proposal, which he calls the ‘nest’ consists of a lattice of 26 interconnected rods that together resemble something from a chemistry lab. The idea is that it’d be possible to walk through and underneath the structure and that looking up, the steel lattice frames the sky with constantly changing perspectives.
‘I was excited that a sculpture was being commissioned at Ebbsfleet before the town was built and honoured to be offered the opportunity to make a proposal. It is an area with a past and a future, of continuous redefinition, of addition and subtraction, settlement and passage, exploitation and veneration,’ says Deacon of the project.
