Proposals
Speculative works developed in our studio — conceived for specific contexts, available for commission. These pieces do not yet exist. Any of them could.
Most people cannot picture a commission until they see something close to it. These proposals exist to close that gap — to show what becomes possible when the medium is taken seriously and the scale is allowed to be ambitious.
Each proposal is site-referenced, material-resolved, and ready to develop into a full commission brief. Dimensions, finish, and site integration are all adaptable.
PROPOSAL 01
FLIGHT
Tribute Sculpture
Following the theft of Llew Summers' Flight from its site at Mount Pleasant, Unfound has been commissioned to create a faithful tribute at original scale — restoring the work to the community and to the stone plinth it once stood on.
No master pattern, mould, or laser scan of the original bronze survives. The sculpture will be built entirely by hand, referencing the surviving one-fifth scale maquette and the extensive photographic record of the original work. Finished dimensions: 850H × 2200L × 750W mm.
Sculpted in glass fibre reinforced concrete over a steel armature, the work will be finished in a sealed bronze powder treatment consistent with the surface character and tone of the original — a material approach that honours the bronze while bringing the piece within reach of the community that lost it.

Low-carbon GRC concrete with sealed bronze powder
