As part of their centenary celebrations, the Forestry England developed Future Forest, a dramatic installation that saw acclaimed stage designer Tom Piper MBE collaborate with internationally renowned artist Lisa Wright to create a series of life-size sculptural figures.
As the project’s principal contractor, we worked closely with the artists, engineers and the Forestry England to fabricate and install these sculptures into their uniquely sensitive environments, ensuring that each element of this special project did exactly what it was supposed to do - raise awareness of the fact that the forests of the future need to be sustainably managed.
“This sculpture trail will stop visitors to Thetford Forest in their tracks, both for the beauty of the figures and the drama the installations bring to the landscape.”
- PK Khaira Creswell, Forestry England’s Director of Centenary Programming.
