Public Art in Ipswich
Barley Sculpture
- By Venessa Parker
- 1999
- Steel
- Maltings, Felaw Street
- Wallis Design Associates
Felaw Maltings is a heritage building which has been redeveloped into offices as part of the regeneration of Ipswich Waterfront.
This regeneration has introduced unusual examples of public art including this sculpture in the form of barley sheaves by Venessa Parker, which reflects the building's previous use.
The stems are made from steel tubes of various in diameters, with the heads of barley made from 5mm plate steel and layered for texture.
Another of Venessa's sculptures, Trident and Nets, is on Ipswich Waterfront.
