Made to Measure Call out
Residents of West Penwith are invited to be part of a new artwork for Mount’s Bay to imagine the submerged forest that sits beneath the sea. A series of seeing sticks are being created for the Penzance-Marazion coast path, where you can rest and imagine the forest.

While these sculptures will be available for everyone to use, the artist is inviting local residents to send their individual measurements, which will be used to inform the size of the seeing sticks – ensuring they are tailor made to the local community.

Please respond by 18th June 2021
