Commission opportunity at River Park

STUDIO Response in partnership with the Environment Agency has announced a commission opportunity as part of the arts programme for the new River Park in Salisbury.

The River Park is a strategically important regeneration project for the city which will create a new green corridor of public open space along the river Avon while delivering essential flood risk mitigation.

“We seek to appoint an artist to creatively investigate the design and installation of large-scale street artworks to the Coach Park WC block in the city centre,” a statement read. “The work will enhance the building aesthetically and also make a statement about its adjacency to the River Park, and to signpost and welcome people accordingly.

“The commission, therefore, is for a local artist to create artworks on the building that draw inspiration from the wildlife and natural context of the River Park.”

To receive the brief and for details on how to apply please contact clare@studio-response.com.

The deadline for expressions of interest is noon on 22nd May 2023.
