The Three Oaks Benches Project

Back of the first bench ‘Flying Creatures around the Oak.

An ancient Oak needed to be felled during a road improvement scheme in the village of Higham Ferrers, Northamptonshire. A protest group tried to save it but eventually it was decided that it must come down on health and safety grounds. I was given the task of creating 3 benches themed around the life of the oak. The first bench depicts the creatures that fly around the branches of oak. The second was themed around the bugs and creepy crawlies of the oak habitat. Finally the last bench was for the animals that live there.
