Description/Abstract:

This practice-based research is the culmination of the research generated by my Arts Council Developing Your Creative Practice (DYCP) grant and my collaboration with the Rural Urban Synthesis Society (RUSS) a CLT whose current development in Lewisham has a self-build requirement embedded in the project.

This self-build sustainable sculpture commemorates the legacy of self-build construction born out of the Walters Segal project (winner of the World Habitat award in 1987) the most pioneering self-build community group led scheme in London started in 1982. Dave Dayes was one of the original self-build residents and 30 years later his third son Kareem Dayes founded RUSS.
