Echoes is about listening, and the echoes of history helping inform our present. It is about reminding us to cherish those who went before, and those veterans who still need our care now and in future.

I was honoured to be commissioned by Royal British Veterans Enterprise to create an artwork for their VE Day 80 ‘the 100 homes for 100 veterans’ campaign.

Fabricated in Corten steel, this installation will evolve and change tone over time. It is a fully accessible and free site, proudly set out on Dover’s Marina Drive.

Echoes is inspired by the acoustic mirrors that dot the south east coast of England which were instrumental in the development of Radar. This was then an evolving technology that played such a significant part in securing victory in Europe in May 1945.

The unveiling was broadcast nationally live on Sky & BBC, including my live interview with Jonny Dymond on Radio 4’s Today programme.

It was also covered by Meridian, BBC South East and print media including The Times.
