Kent History Tree & Library Centre

History Tree & Leaves. Collaboration with Michael Condron

Phase 2 of the "History Tree" for Maidstone's new centre was completed in the Autumn. An 8 metre stainless steel tree, with translucent mosaic at its base adorns the front of the building, with 17 steel and mosaic leaves changing from green to red blowing along the pillars.

The final phase of the project, set into the paving will be the shadow of the tree. This will involve almost 50 etched leaves containing stories, anecdotes and historical facts gathered during workshops from people all over Kent. The building was formally opened by the Duke of Kent in 2012.
