The Nursling Murmurings

By  Martin Heron 2018 - 2019
(Yellow Murmuring) Adanac Park Public Art Project. Two painted steel rhomboid forms installed on the Brownhill Way Roundabout, Nursling. Commissioned by Test Valley Borough Council the works have been made following an intensive community engagement process. Working with schools, businesses and local people, hundreds of hand drawings and paper bird cuttings were collected and incorporated into the design to form a sculptural community murmuration.
