For The Plot, Atta Kwami presents two three-dimensional artworks: an imposing but joyful asymmetric double archway stands at the junction of four pathways in the centre of the Harbour Arm. And a very different group of sculptures derived from traditional West African street vending kiosks take up position on Castle Hill Avenue near to the Civic Centre.
These structures are like 3D paintings. They transform the every day and humdrum locations into vibrant, joyful places. Both locations are surefire Instagram hits and invite visitors to find new perspectives of Folkestone.
