Every hour, 24 hours a day for 100 days, a different person will step up to the Fourth Plinth on Trafalgar Square and help make a living portrait of the UK. Unusual Rigging has provided the technical infrastructure for this event.
The project One & Other is devised by Antony Gormley and is presented by Artichoke in partnership with Sky Arts. Unusual’s role involved the design, manufacture and installation of a safety net around the plinth. Unusual also devised the means for participants accessing the plinth, a JCB Telehandler with a custom built cage and provided the reception and media facility on the south west corner of Trafalgar Square.
