Mottisfont Angels
http://www.nationaltrust.org.uk/main/w-mottisfont
Artists and makers are invited to submit proposals to create an ‘Angel’ for temporary installation in the gardens at Mottisfont from December 2nd 2011 to January 2nd 2012.
Mottisfont receives over 200,000 visitors per year and the arts programme aims to increasing both the scale and range of interests of that group. This is an opportunity for the selected artists/makers to produce a new work in response to a unique location with the potential to be seen by a large audience.
Angels can be for sale and could be designed as multiples or one-off pieces. (One-off pieces if sold would need to remain on site until 2nd of January 2012.) Mottisfont will take 25% commission on sales.
The ‘Angel’ should be a three-dimensional object or sculpture, durable enough to survive outdoors in Winter.
‘Angels’ could be installed in many ways - in the ground, hanging from a tree, partially hidden in one of the nooks and crannies on site or responding to an existing feature of the house or grounds. Location of each ‘Angel’ will be negotiated with the artist/maker.
The budget for each ‘Angel’ is £250 material and production costs, which is non-negotiable.
Proposals should include:
Each Angel should be completed and delivered for installation by 18th November 2011
If you would like materials or disks to be returned, please enclose a stamped addressed envelope covering the cost of return postage. Please send your proposals to:
