Artists needed!
Artists from Nottingham and across the country are already sending in a whole flock of imaginative designs for Hoodwinked robins. If you are an artist with a bright idea, please download the artists' pack from the Hoodwinked website to see how to get involved. The closing date for designs is 30 January 2018.
We are looking for a variety of designs, some illustrating aspects of Nottingham, its attractions and history. For example, artists may be inspired by lace, literature, local myths and tales, the dialect, our architecture, Goose Fair, industry, local heroes, sports or sporting legends, or by aspects of our modern multi-cultural city. Or perhaps you have a better idea?
We welcome designs in any art form – traditional to new media, fine art to illustrations, street art and mosaic. Whatever the art form, we’re keen to add drama, fun and a creative flourish to the Hoodwinked sculpture trail.
The robin holds a particular significance in supporting the work of our charity partner, Nottinghamshire Hospice, as it symbolises hope after the passing of a loved one. This cheeky chappy also captures the mischievous spirit of Robin Hood, and we’re sure he will wing his way into the affections of people far and wide.
