"History In The Making"

I. H. S. is a Non-Profit Organisation, put together to build Public Artworks which celebrate our industrial heritage in a very real way.

 

We work directly with communities to design and build the artworks which will change the face of their community forever, and we mean forever.

 Our monuments are built to last, using trusted techniques coupled with contemporary thinking to create sculptures and icons of our towns.

 

We have built the largest mining monument in the world, re-made parts of the industrial landscape, created life sized communities in steel and copper.

 

Our Director Luke Perry was a main protagonist in the re-building of the Titanic's bow in Belfast, restoring the Engineers monument in Southampton and most impressively bringing the Titanic's mighty anchor home to the Black Country.

 

We have designed and built artworks, gardens and playgrounds in schools across the country and supported museums and workshops which promote the identity of our rich industrial culture.

 

Most importantly we stand for civic pride, our hope is that the things which we build bring an understanding of our history and within that, a respect for our present and most importantly who we are.
