Construction and history
2013
Work started to gain interested from the public around Tanner Park through flyers for stone workshops and to generate interest in a potential future sculpture on the estate Whites Grounds Estate.[1]
2019
Cornerstone was led by the stonemason artist Austin Emery[2] in directing 100 public participants in stonecrafting workshops to create individual stoneblocks that would be assembled into a larger sculpture.
Bone used in the creation of the sculpture was gathered from the River Thames.
Funding was raised on Spacehive for £86,081 (2019) [3] along with funding coming from other partners like the Mayor of London that provide £50,000 (2019) [4] and Southwark Council £7,500 (2019)[5]
