Kielder Art & Architecture Commission

Kielder Water & Forest Park Development Trust, through its commissioning programme Kielder Art & Architecture, invites expressions of interest from artists or architects to create a new temporary work for the surroundings of Kielder Castle, Forestry Commission England’s visitor base in Kielder Water & Forest Park, Northumberland.

Interested parties are asked to propose a work of contemporary art or architecture in any media that explores and responds to the Castle and its broad environs.

This commission is part of a larger strategic project by Forestry Commission England and the Kielder Trust, and involving artists Heather & Ivan Morison and Mosedale Gillatt Architects, that is currently exploring options for the longterm future usage and identity of the Castle and the wider western end of Kielder Water & Forest Park.

A commissioning budget of £8000 is available to cover all fees, materials and other realisation costs.
