As part of the arts trail commission for Groundwork we have been working with willow grown in the community garden at Grozone in Northwich.
Using nature’s own resources and working with the ethos of Groundwork, the garden and the volunteers we used willow cut freshly from the grounds and from the weeping willows along the nearby river along with stunning dogwood, to make a series of interlocking circles to create a large ‘cloud’ to be suspended as an archway through from one area of the garden to the other. Within the circles we used string to ‘write’ a part of the poem that the volunteers created during our first session together.
