As part of our ‘Fantasticology’ proposals for the London 2012 Olympic Park, our team collected ‘fantastic facts’ to be distributed on benches throughout the landscape. Contributions were invited from a diverse range of people to form part of this exciting transformation of east London.
A series of benches distributed throughout the Park now display plaques describing these collected facts, which were either submitted via the bespoke project website or gathered through a series of local workshops held in Spring 2011. Nuggets of knowledge about subjects from astrology to zoology and collected from the local community and global specialists will excite, bewilder, inform and inspire visitors to the Park for years to come.
