Futurecity was appointed to create a cultural strategy for Kew Bridge West, a riverside development five minutes from Kew Gardens. Futurecity’s strategy proposed a series of embedded artworks that would interpret, commemorate and enhance the significance of Kew Bridge in the history of Britain’s water supply. A multidisciplinary group of creative practitioners has now been brought together to develop collaborative artworks inspired by the history and geography of the area.
