Fish Island based artist William Cobbing has won the commission for a new permanent site specific artwork in the public realm of Fish Island Village. Drawing on the community of artists local to the area – historically, Hackney Wick Fish Island has been home to one of the highest concentrations of artists, designers and artisans in Europe – the selection panel sought proposals from local artists who could reflect on their own experiences of the area. Cobbing’s winning proposal for a £40,000 artwork, Written in Water, is a site-specific installation comprising a constellation of twelve cast iron plates embedded in the ground. Redolent of manhole covers, they are integrated into the paving of the new development’s public square and yards, and embossed with quotes or local stories, creating a portal to the area’s past.
