Public Realm Intervention: Oceansgate Plymouth

Plymouth City Council are seeking to commission a site-specific contemporary artwork for the exciting new Oceansgate development. Situated on the southern edge of Devonport Dockyard, one of the largest naval dockyards in Europe, Oceansgate will bring businesses together to create a world-class hub for marine industries. The existing industrial buildings and docks will be transformed to create the first exclusively marine Enterprise Zone in the UK.

We are looking for an imaginative artist intervention in the public space at the gateway to the Oceansgate campus. The piece will have an important role in signalling the evolving contribution the former South Yard has made to Plymouth, and the continuum of working skills, on land, in support of maritime endeavour at sea. The fee for the commission is £18,000 inclusive of artist time materials, installation costs and expenses.

For the full artist brief visit and to express interest visit their website.

Deadline: 17 April 2017, midnight
