Sheffield artist Jason Turpin Thomson carved in polystyrene and then cast this fantasy iron chair .Sited on a crumbling weir in the middle of the River Rivelin-it could have grown in this beautiful, post industrial, Sheffield Valley. An ode to the longlost bodgers, coppice workers and steel workers of the Rivelin Valley.
Roots of Iron project officer for Sheffield City Council Catherine Nuttgens said”I wanted something that would encourage quiet reflection and appreciation of the River Rivelin, whilst echoing the woodland heritage and industrial architecture that can be observed all along the river’s banks.”
