I was asked by the Romanian Cultural Institute to create designs for an interactive artwork in celebration of the London 2012 Olympic and Paralympic Games. Installed in Victoria Park, one of the official 'Live' venues during the games, the rotating elements reveal both colour and design variations on each of the three walls
The designs contain a number of elements related to the Olympics and London / UK, including:
The Olympic motto
XXX - The 30th Olympiad
The Union Flag
Stopwatch
Targets
Fireworks / rosettes / streamers
1/2/3 - 1st/2nd/3rd
References to the London Underground map / Olympic podiums
Medals
2012
Britannia
The London Eye
The Orbit tower
Patterns inspired by Victorian Gothic architecture
UK heraldic symbols - Maltese cross, Tudor rose, etc

The project was a lot of work, but the opportunity to be involved in the amazing summer of London 2012 was very special
