This print captures sculptor Tom Bird on Flat Holm Island in the Bristol Channel. Standing proudly next to his creation, Bird's sculpture seamlessly combines the island's outline with a battleship radar top, showcasing his artistic ingenuity. The photograph commemorates an important moment for Bird as he witnesses the installation of his work after emerging victorious in a competition sponsored by BP and Barry College of Education. The three-quarter-ton sculpture was transported to the island by the Royal Air Force (RAF), adding an element of grandeur to its unveiling. Taken on August 28th, 1976, this image provides a glimpse into the vibrant art scene of that era. It showcases not only Bird's talent but also highlights the collaboration between different entities such as artists, corporations like BP, and educational institutions like Barry College of Education. The presence of helicopters and aircraft in the background hints at both logistical challenges faced during transportation and perhaps even military involvement due to RAF's role in delivering this magnificent artwork. This snapshot serves as a testament to how art can transcend boundaries and bring together diverse elements from various sectors. Located in Cardiff within Wales' Vale of Glamorgan region, Flat Holm Island becomes more than just a picturesque backdrop; it becomes an integral part of Bird's creation. As we delve into this historic photograph from Memory Lane Prints, we are reminded that art has no limits when it comes to inspiring awe and fostering connections among people across time and space.
