Grey to Green Public Art Commissions

Grey to Green Public Art Commissions Grey to Green is an exciting project that will transform the West Bar area of Sheffield City Centre, narrowing existing roads and creating wide footpaths and cycle routes. These will run alongside an innovative Sustainable Urban Drainage System (SUDS) scheme with meadow planting.

The Public Art within the Grey to Green Project will create five 4m high totems made from brightly coloured stacked steel boxes that will be filled with artwork. There are four artist's commissions that include graphic design to direct the overall approach, colours and appearance of the totems and three commissions to provide stone, metal and reflective artworks to fill the boxes.

The total value of these commissions is £26,000 and applications should be received by 5.00pm on 10th August 2015.
