Black Rock Beachcombers are three innovative marker sculptures created for the new boardwalk at Black Rock on Brighton’s eastern seafront. Combining 3D photogrammetry scanning and 3D modelling these 3D printed digital collages reveal hidden stories about the nature, the people and the engineering of this historic and important coastal location. Commissioned by Brighton & Hove City Council as part of the Black Rock Rejuvenation Project, the works were made following discussions with residents and stakeholders and all the elements are very meaningful to the city. The sculptures are designed by Brighton-based, internationally renowned artists Anna Dumitriu and Alex May.
The Black Rock Rejuvenation project is part of a large-scale regeneration effort to transform the city’s eastern seafront and enable further development in the future.
The project commissioned by Brighton & Hove City Council. 3D printing and fabrication by Art Intelligence.
