Team Sculpture engages young people with contemporary art through hands-on workshops and community-based projects. Collaborating with schools like Govan High and Dunbar Academy, and organisations like Barnardo’s Gap Homes and Amina.
Originally created by Richard Groom for the 1988 Glasgow Garden Festival, Floating Head is a 26-tonne sculpture reflecting Glasgow’s industrial past. Sculpture Placement Group’s work to refurbish and redisplay the piece reveals the complex realities of commissioning, ownership, and preservation in public art.
The unveiling of Maria Gondek’s The Brolly at Platform in Easterhouse was a collaborative effort, initiated in 2021/22 through a partnership between Platform, Blairtummock Housing Association, and SPG. The aim was to develop a new sculpture for exhibition alongside a permanent installation within a community setting.
