\n The \u2018cloud-like\u2019 shape of the sculptures were created using computer simulations of three scent plumes in space, which are shaped by the wind and flight of the moths.\n<\/p>\n
\n Planning documents say the sculptures \u201cexplore the dynamic interaction between flowers and insects, capturing nature\u2019s processes for visitors and residents to contemplate\u201d.\n<\/p>\n
\n The sculptures, which range from 2.1m to 2.5m high, will be installed on the wildflower meadow at Canalside Quarter, the first residential phase of the project.\n<\/p>\n

\n Alexandra Daisy Ginsberg designed the sculptures, which are inspired by the project\u2019s ambitions of \u201csustainability, innovation, and community\u201d.\n<\/p>\n
\n Information boards for the artwork will also be installed, along with QR codes with links to dedicated webpages with more information.\n<\/p>\n
\n Oxford City Council will make a decision on the plans in due course.\n<\/p>\n
\n The main hall and two laboratory buildings have been completed, while three more buildings will open in 2027.\n<\/p>\n
\n Developers say the site will create more than 4,500 jobs.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Oxford North, which will eventually include a million square feet of laboratory and office space, a public park…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":128716,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[31],"tags":[307,304,305,306,308,93,61,60],"class_list":{"0":"post-129219","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-arts-and-design","8":"tag-arts","9":"tag-arts-and-design","10":"tag-artsanddesign","11":"tag-artsdesign","12":"tag-design","13":"tag-entertainment","14":"tag-ie","15":"tag-ireland"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/129219","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=129219"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/129219\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/128716"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=129219"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=129219"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=129219"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
