I love Andreas from publicworks. I love him (and his work) to pieces. So when the LLDC and muf got some money together and asked us to do a project with it, I jumped at the chance. The location for it was Mabley Green; a park near the Olympic Park that had been overrun by football pitches that were moved there when the stadiums were built. After a couple of years, local people were not happy.
So we asked them to draw what they really wanted on the park instead. Then borrowed the very same equipment that painted the pitch lines on the park in the first place and drew their wishes in epic scale. It made a bold statement, and started a load of interesting questions about the park's future use. And now, it's set to become the largest edible park in the world!
