‘Glazed Screen’ by Chris Ofili was commissioned by Shepway District Council and Kent County Council, for Folkestone Library. The piece consists of a translucent glass screen located in the foyer space and lit from below. The vibrant colours are reflected in a mirrored ceiling. Painted in Chris Ofili’s characteristic free-hand, the screen helps visitors navigate their way through the space of the refurbished library.

The prize money was used to create descriptive panels for the artworks in the
library foyer, café and for the gallery furniture, together with a workshop with
local school children.
