mighty oaks from tiny acorns grow is a large-scale light sculpture that sits at the intersection between the environmental crisis and state power. A collaboration with Antonia Wright and Ruben Millares, the piece is a part of a series of works in which the artists explore the sculptural and symbolic potential of standard steel barricades. Designed to seamlessly blend into the landscape, the use of illumination highlights the ubiquitous nature of these barricades on our city streets especially as an architecture of control in protests.
