Angus Ross were commissioned by Canterbury City Council to enhance the experience of using a previously neglected riverside walk on the banks of the Great Stour. The council’s initial plan was to build simple fishing platforms and commission art to be placed on them. Angus’s idea was that the platforms themselves became art works whilst providing a place to sit and engage with the river. More here: http://www.angusross.co.uk/canterbury-platform/
