Pegasus and the Tree Pirates. Horsell Common























Its the story of a tree destroyed in a strong storm being redeemed and made into a stunning piece of public art.

The work was commissioned by Horsell Common Preservation Society. Remember this is where the Martians landed in 'War of the Worlds' so it needs preserving. The work was carried out by Captain Chainsaw and the Tree Pirates.  























You can read more about it in the heart of surrey   and more photos are available

It is only a few hundred yards from our home and is a brilliant piece of redemptive creativity, inspiring to look at.   I only hope it survives graffiti artists.
