'Amber' on former Boothferry Park, Hull

Looking through one of the three seating cubes making up 'Amber', a new artwork on the former site of Hull City AFC's Boothferry Park stadium. It uses stories from supporters, and the residents of the estate that now stands there. The words are stencil-cut etchings which are projected by sunlight in the amber colour of the football club's strip. Installed in February 2022, it is the work of artist-designer Adrian Riley and stands on the position of the centre spot of the old pitch. The low angle of this shot may make them look bigger than they are - which is about half a metre square.
