Make Good - Green Man
London, UK
Shimmerwalls were delighted when asked by make:good to help them create a Shimmerwall for one of their community projects.
Make Good are a small design and architecture practice who specialise in involving local people in local change. They were asked by Lambeth Council to co-design a number of public artworks as part of an overall public realm improvements project in Loughborough Junction to celebrate and boost the areas identity.
They carried out a public workshop in Nov 2016 with local carnival arts cafe Sunshine Arts International. The event was attended by more than 40 local people who helped them come up with the design concept. One of the Shimmerwalls staff members saw the event advertised and that is how Shimmerwalls started to collaborate with Make Good in the project.
The Shimmerwall is installed above the Green Man Skills Zone, a former pub building, that now offers training and support to get Lambeth locals into work or further education. The design takes its motif from traditional stonework representations of the mythical 'Green Man' who symbolises spring and rebirth, apt not only for the function of the building it adorns, but also the wider change and improvements taking place in the area as a whole.
The fabrication was funded by Matthew Betts, the building landlord.
