14th December 2007 to 6th January 2008

For the winter festive season, Studio Upstairs were commissioned to create some decorations for the trees.

Studio Upstairs' tree decorationsThe response by artist Rose Hall brought an urban edge to the notion of Christmas decorations with some extraordinary sculptural pigeons, which were created with a team of artists and volunteers in Studio Upstairs’s workshop above the Vortex Jazz Club. These pigeons were to be found perched in the trees on the square’s stage.
