The Horsefair Public Art Commission - 2011
|
|
|
|
The Horsefair now has a horse, unveiled by
Councillor Stephen Clee and Kidderminster Mayor Anne Hingley in
June 2011.
Artist Tom Hill created the work made of over
500 horse shoes which would have otherwise gone into landfill as
they can’t be recycled.
|
 |
The statues pose and the type of horse was chosen by local
residents who responded to post cards which were put through their
doors. Tom also spend a number of hours talking to local people
during the consultation, and a galloping thoroughbred gained the
highest number of votes by far. |
