A walk in the park – a sense of liberation
This work celebrates the central role of the British landscape in all our lives.
The stained glass window feel is a statement of the importance for a renewed look at our nation’s values and a contemporary take on the style of William Morris.
The hedgerows’ branches weave together various aspects of British woodland and hedgerow with our life’s journey. The central panel features a path winding towards a hill’s summit, a metaphor for the positive role of the countryside in helping us climb out of entanglement with a sense of liberation.
