Green Heart Kilifi is calling on visionary artists, architectures, sculptors, and creative studios to help shape the identity of our vibrant community.
We’re excited to announce an open call for proposals for the design and installation of a landmark sculpture that embodies the heart and soul of Green Heart Kilifi. Set to be installed at a central location within our development, the sculpture will serve as a powerful symbol of growth, creativity, sustainability, and the deep connection between people and nature.
Green Heart Kilifi Sculpture: What We’re Looking For
We are seeking original, thought-provoking concepts that:
- Reflect the values of sustainability, community, and regeneration
- Use natural or recycled materials wherever possible
- Are suitable for outdoor display in Kilifi’s coastal climate
- Are safe, durable, and maintainable
The call is open to individual artists, collectives, creative studios, and architectures locally, with priority consideration for proposals that integrate community participation or local storytelling.
Green Heart Kilifi Sculpture Submission Details
To apply, you’ll need to submit:
- A concept brief and sketch/visuals
- A short artist bio or portfolio
- A budget estimate and proposed timelines
The piece should be aligned with the key elements of the Green Heart story; balance, connection and belonging within the natural environment using natural, local materials as much as possible, while keeping maintenance and affordability in mind. There is a very large Baobab tree in the proposed area, and the designs should take the tree into account.
