Building started in AD 122 and finished in AD 130,the Hadrian's Wall goes across from the east to the west coast of northern Brjye.aiain.It was built to control people entering the Roman Empire from what is now Scotland.A colorful new artwork was made last year to celebrate the Hadrian's Wall 1900 Festival.
The artwork stands beside the remains of the Hadrian's Wall.It is called The Future Belongs To What Was As Much As What Is.It is 9 metres wide and 16 metres tall.The artwork was designed by artist Myerscough,who is known for her bright and colorful creations. "The moment I stood in the remains and found they were unchanged from Roman times,I had an overwhelming feeling of wanting to make an artwork here.I knew immediately this was the right place." said Myerscough.
Myerscough worked with the poet Ellen Moran and community groups to create the artwork.And the wall of the artwork is covered with small signs painted by local people.Some words and phrases on the signs were chosen by the poet Ellen Moran,such as "freedom", "love" and "everybody's welcome".The artwork attracted lots of tourists.Anybody who visited would love it,because they could go inside it and look down,to see the same view as Roman soldiers had seen.It could help people see the Hadrian's Wall from a different perspective.
As part of the Hadrian's Wall 1900 Festival,the art celebration was open to the public until 30th October,2022.After that,the artwork was completely removed and the signs were given back to the local people who helped paint them.
