Following on from the success of ‘Beached Willow’ a bio degradable sculpture created by Deb Hart for the Harwich Festival of Arts 2017, we decided that for 2018 we wanted a piece which would have equal impact during the festival, but which would then become a permanent public artwork for Harwich.
With Anne very much in mind, Bev had the idea to create a mosaic on a boat and with Arts Council funding secured the project was handed over to Anne, who went on to design and create ‘Esturiana’ goddess of water and creativity. Studio space was provided by Old Bank Studios.
