In April Birch Engineering launched a competition alongside the Universtity of Hertford for design students to create a sculpture. the winning piece to be placed in the grounds of the University and all the manufacturing completed by Birch Engineering. The Prize went to Vusumuzi Michael Mlambo.

The Concept.

My sculpture proposal adresses the global issues of green-house gases, damage to the environment, global warming and the dependence of human beings in technology.  The Sculpture suggests that the human race is losing nature at the expense of technology and that life in general is under threat.  The Sculpture also presents the optional solution that if human beings stop and think, it is not yet too late, there is another chance.

The Sculpture.

The Sculpture is an image of withering tree that has fruit. the top half of the tree is almost completely dead.  The bottom half of the tree is still very green, strong and alive.  The tree has a lot of fruit: it almost looks as though it is overloaded.

Materials and Fabrication.

The tree is made of metals, hard metal for the stem, if possible, so that it will rust and blend with the rest of the trees and the soft or thin metals for the leaves. the fruits are made of motor and engine parts i have already spoken with Hemel Hempstead Car Breakers and they are willing to donate scrap parts in support of this project.
