"In our hands" features a giant human torso emerging from the ground... is intended to stand as a metaphor for our relationship to the environment. The sculpture is made entirely from drought-resistant plants and peat-free compost and is the work of Brighton sculptor Kathryn Jordan and artist Cliff Wright. Part of the City in Bloom project.
