6. WINDOW SEATS ON THE WORLD
Rod Springett
The White Cliffs of Dover
The sculptures comprise of two sets of three panels set at right angles with seats in between and large windows cut out of the panels. The sculptures are installed on the cliffs of Dover and offer visitors a chance to stop and reflect on the landscape. Framing the landscape in this way the windows allow one to compose the landscape and to contemplate on one’s life within it.
ABOUT THE PROJECT
The Dover Art Network is an online exhibition of ideas from artists in Dover commissioned in response to the COVID-19 lockdown.
The Dover Art Network resource exists for visitors to explore the work of artists visualised in locations around Dover. It provides artists with an opportunity to explore and develop ideas for sculpture beyond physical limits, to push the boundaries of contextualising art in the public space, and to exhibit collectively across boundaries.
We encourage everyone to explore the work and ideas of the artists as they respond to our town.
