Through a partnership between Commissions North and The Environment Agency a series of artworks and designs were integrated into a major flood defence scheme along Cockshaw Burn which runs through the centre of Hexham.
A series of granite sculptural forms placed within the streambed create a playful interaction with the water. Text and linear elements in the stream and enclosing walls refer to the vitality of water and the organic mathematics of the Fibonacci number series.
