Blaze has been designed to populate the disparate roadside verges of the A66 in Middlesbrough - this is the first phase of the piece which can beimplemented at numerous locations along the roadside. The A66 currentlypasses through the centre of Middlesbrough and for many drivers it is their only viewpoint of the town. Blaze was conceived as a unifying treatment to the roadside which would gradually emerge along further stretches gradually providing Middlesbrough A66 with its own unique identity.A series of anodised aluminium staves are set in the ground in long arrayswhich give the impression of giant forms in the landscape. The arrays arearranged in layers so that the shape of the piece transforms as people pass by. Fabricated in gold anodised aluminium Blaze is designed to catch the light in unusual ways creating a bright sculptural form along the often dreary dual carriageway landscape.
