Euronova were searching for a suitable way to celebrate the company's 10th Birthday
and it was suggested to commission some art. (Euronova have sponsored
a annual children's art event at the Bristol RWA for many years now
but never "a real artist !")
These Wallace and Gromit sculptures made by the Year
5 children of Westbury Park School, Bristol (Wallace is some 2.5m
high). The artists morphed as many Bristol features into these loveable
characters as possible, how many can you spot ? (by the way can you
spot the Banksy logo ? It's a fake).

8,000 museum officers, curators and associated companies.
The brief given to Beki was to
create a work of art that people might wish to keep either as a poster
on the wall or as a screen saver. And also build in the themes of
"protection", "trusted", "nurture" and "relationship". Do you think
she achieved this ?
