Stories Hand-Cut into Something Tangible
When Osborne Clarke made its landmark move to Halo—one of the UK’s most sustainable office spaces—it wasn’t just a shift in location. It was a statement of intent. A declaration of their commitment to transformation, guided by decarbonisation, sustainability and future-facing innovation.
In response, Art Acumen curated a collaboration that speaks to both vision and values, commissioning celebrated papercut artist and illustrator Sarah Dennis to bring poetic storytelling into the new space.
Inspired by a collective poem drawn from rich dialogue across the Osborne Clarke community—gathered through immersive workshops and reflective questionnaires led by a poet-in-residence—Sarah's triptych responds with elegant complexity:
“This commission wasn’t just an artwork—it was an experience. The process was collaborative, thoughtful and beautifully human. Art Acumen elevated our values, translating them into something timeless and tangible.”
This is what happens when creative curiosity meets strategic clarity. When values are given form. When art becomes impact. And when voices—client, artist, and community—converge to create something emotionally compelling and enduringly meaningful.
