Inspiring

You can tell how hard an indie film is to finance by the number of investment credits preceding the main titles. Turns out it’s the same for public sculpture. The wide range of businesses and organisations that pitched in to make Neil Dawson’s sculpture Spires a reality reads like a prose poem to process.
