Weymouth RR

environmental thoughts

A new road through a traditional English rural landscape presents a number of problems which can be solved responsibly. Approaching this from an artist's point of view will give unexpected results.

intermittent series of high relief - Artistic interventions - proposals for Highway A15

A way of getting the motorist's attention is to introduce very small hillocks - intermittent series of high relief - onto the side of the road. In a flat country, like Holland is, these will contrast subtly with the horizontal character of the landscape. Their shape recalls the piles of sand after a dumper has deposited them - one after the other. But, overgrown with grass, they blend with the landscape.
