PROJECTS IN PROGRESS: Boundary Road Drainage Pump Station
Hanna Benihoud
Hanna Benihoud was commissioned for a design-only contract for an integrated public artwork at the Boundary Road Drainage Pump Station. Design-only opportunities allow for artists to collaborate with the design team to include public art in the overall concept of the space.
"The idea is simple. The Pump Station design team is to be lead by a group of 6-9 year olds. The pump station will be will be a piece that embodies the inhibitions of youth and the magic of imagination." - Hanna Benihoud
Based on workshops held with children, the artwork will consist of a series of small playful gargoyles and painted horizontal and vertical surfaces surrounding the pump station.
