The mosaic located at Broadfield Barton parade is set to be given a new lease of life, with a brand new mosaic by artist Sue Penrose to be unveiled on Wednesday 27 May at 4.30pm.
The Broadfield ‘making a mark’ project has been present in the shopping parade for 20 years but sadly wear and tear has taken its toll and the mosaic needs to be replaced.
The new mosaic contains aspects of the original community piece. Hands in the new mosaic represent the community and circles have been used to represent trees.
Crawley has a strong history of commissioning art for the public to enjoy. With its new thoughtful design, I am sure that this new mosaic will become a local landmark just as familiar and valued for years to come. I would like to thank Sue Penrose for developing and producing this wonderful piece of art.
