Winning Artwork Sculpture Trail Kingston
Please vote for your favourite sculpture! The winning artwork will become a permanent addition to the town centre!
From mid August 2021, Kingston, London
Kingston sculpture trail artwork winners
7 contemporary artworks have been chosen to be installed as part of a Kingston sculpture trail opening in mid-August 2021. The winning artworks were selected by a distinguished panel chaired by David Mach (creator of the iconic red phone box sculpture ‘Out of Order’ on Old London Road), a panel made up of young people, the Mayor of Kingston Councillor Sushila Abraham and representatives from Kingston University.
One of the winning artworks is sculpture ‘AANGEL’, a ‘guardian’ or benevolent presence looking over Kingston. The figure is asexual - it’s neither female or male. It talks more of our collective humanity rather than gender.
Please vote for your favourite sculpture! The winning artwork will become a permanent addition to the town centre! Vote by 31October 2021.
