Charity Awareness Campaign

The final interactive installation was built in the sheltered archway space outside Dundee City Councils main office (Dundee House). Conceptually, it was based around an abstraction of the organisations tree logo; a symbol which both staff and service users felt embodied the charities core values of regrowth and hope.

The piece featured giant letters which spelt out the charities name if viewed from a certain angle and a canopy of netting filled with hundreds of green origami windmills.  These windmills could be released by jiggling the vine like threads which hung from the netting. They could then be unfolded to reveal a short quote from a service user in addition to information about how the charity could be contacted.  

According to HAVEN they did have an increased number of people contacting them about the charity after the two day installation but unfortunately did not record the numbers.
