Installation at the Elephant and Castle

A prototype for a site specific intervention?

Has what has been done enlightened anyone?

Well, I was quite surprised at the guesses.
Perhaps the urban residents really are a race apart from their country cousins!


  • Read more about the town and country mice here!



  • Perhaps the pictures entertained some folk; at least one person was curious enough to go and view the pictures quite closely,

    and even seemed to be using his mobile phone;
    to call someone, or to photograph the installation, perhaps?

    Certainly the project prototype was not so great a task that the whole idea might not be re-done on a grander scale.

    More robust materials, more heavily put in place would be needed.

    And more securely too, as the rabbits disappeared after just one night!

    Do the people using the Elephant and Castle want their green spaces populated by wildlife, or are they content to exist with the sterile traffic islands that they use at present?
