Title:
Atlantic Echo
Date:
2001
Artist:
Dan Archer
Location:
Ocean Way, Cardiff
Background:
As part of its contribution
to the Strategy for Public Art in Cardiff Bay, CBAT’s client was keen to
commission an artist to develop a concept for landscaping, possibly including
a water feature, in close consultation with the landscaping architects for the
site. Moreover it was intented that the work should become an integrated whole
within the soft landscaping along Ocean Way, but be clearly visible as a distinct
feature.
Commission:
CBAT was appointed to develop
the commission and work in close consultation with the landscape architects
for the site and the chosen artist Dan Archer. The work is constructed from
four large steel frames, interested by a large stone base.
