20th September 2021

Artists Matthew Rosier & James Bulley’s installation Pontefract Giants launches on Saturday 25th September at Pontefract Castle.  Multiple trees within the grounds of the castle will slowly transform into Pontefract Giants accompanied by an atmospheric soundtrack and musical score which explores the deep history of the site.  Elemental visuals and sounds will accompany the Giants – fire, rock, rain – alluding to the natural forces that accompanied human development.

Commissioned by Wakefield City Council, created with support from Arts&Heritage.
