Mosaic Fish for RHS Tatton

The other artwork to be included in New Charter’s RHS show garden will be 45 mosaic fish, all swimming amongst the flowers and plants that represent the sea.  Each double-sided mosaic fish is mounted on a steel rod and they will be displayed individually and in shoals.  The fish were all made by young people from the New Charter Dreamscheme group and they look absolutely fantastic.  Here’s one I made as an example being ‘roadtested’ in my garden.

And here’s the young people’s fish, grouted and ready to have their steel rod attached.  There’s a big complicated table which lists whose fish is whose – everyone that made a mosaic will get it back once Tatton has finished.
