Nesting
One of a series of fourteen hand-forged artworks, dotted along a trail beside the River Colne in the old port area of Colchester ( The Hythe). They are the work of a group of artists ( Andrew Rowe, David Mackie, Heather Parnell and Becky Adams) who worked with members of the local community to produce the sculptures. The trail begins ( or ends) at firstsite, the new arts' devlopment in Colchester town centre , which will open to the public on 25 September 2011.
The sculptures represent various aspects of either the wildlife or local history of the area and the whole trail is described in a specially written poem by Martin Newell of Wivenhoe, in which he assigns a verse to each sculpture. The details ( including a map of the trail) are available locally in Colchester.
