oculion: a word to describe an open-arched pavilion with an oculus

Co-designed with John Esling, the oculion will take over 2 years to fully realise. However, the first willows have been planted this week. Two sculptural benches are now being worked on to go in the centre which will allow two people to stare through the oculus together.

Project collaborators: John Esling, Pauline and Matthew Bickerton.
