Box On The Docks, Media City, Salford

A public art commission for Hemmingway Designs.

Welcome to Box on the Docks!

30 ‘boxes’ outside of MediaCity’s restaurants. Winding through the gardens and along the waterfront. Self-contained dining pods taking the form of sheds and greenhouses curated by Salford-based artists.

My ‘box’ was Inspired by the Bauhaus movement, the paper folding techniques of Joseph Albers, curved origami shapes and architectural form.

The installation utilised over 90 meters of fine art paper that was laser cut and hand folded to create a dazzling canopy, utilising the qualities of the greenhouse structure, the light, glass, and sense of space and shadows.
