STRATA HOLDINGS PROUD TO BE ‘PUFFIN’ OUR CHEEKS OUT!

Strata Holdings Limited are backing an ambitious Puffin sculpture trail designed to attract more visitors to East Yorkshire.

Look out for them along the East Yorkshire coast and around the East Riding, as they find new and often unlikely habitats! These are no ordinary Puffins, but beautiful, artist decorated sculptures, standing proudly 1.5ms tall, colourful beacons in the landscape.

Each colourful Puffin will be sponsored by a Business or Institution and designed by an Artist inspired by one of three key themes – endangered wildlife of our coasts and seas; the global warming crisis and the growth of green energy; and people and stories of the East Yorkshire coast.

Strata Holding Limited are sponsoring the ‘Wrecked Puffin’ which draws its inspiration from the hundreds of shipwrecks that litter the sea bed off the East Yorkshire coast. This is reflected in the use of rivets and rust.

The Artist, Graham is a Hull based graphic designer. He is also a metal/sculpture artist and fisherman. Having an interest in all things aquatic he spends much of his time in or on the water around the Yorkshire coast and further afield. Graham produced two moths (Crystal Moth & Spirit of an Age) for the ‘A Moth for Amy” Project which we also worked on.
