This site contains images, text, video clips, and audio files that provide a contextual background to the Future Perfect public art programme. The work shown has been commissioned by Bristol City Council, funded through Section 106 monies raised to mitigate the effects of development in the Hengrove area.
You can keep up to date with the work Future Perfectis doing by signing up to our newsletter or watching our project videos. The website details live projects as they are developing and when they are completed, the site will become an archive of past projects, providing information on works, dates and locations.
We hope that the website will become a useful resource for those interested in site specific and context based artworks, a research tool for students and academics, or a window into the works in the City’s collection.
To experience this website at its best please use the most up to date browsers when possible. For details of the site design and access please see the ‘Accessibility’ section.
If you have any feedback, enquiries or suggestions regarding this website, we'd love to hear from you so please contact us.
The Future Perfect website was launched in February 2014.

We recognise the importance of providing a website that is accessible to everyone. This includes people with sight problems, hearing, mobility and cognitive impairments as well as users with dial-up, older browsers or newer technologies such as mobiles and PDAs. This statement outlines the accessibility features of this website. If you have any comments or suggestions about any aspect of the accessibility of this site, please don’t hesitate to contact us.
We have provided the features set out below to improve navigation for screen reader users, keyboard navigation and users of text-only browsers.
HTML heading tags are used to convey the document layout. H1 tags are used for main titles, H2 tags for subtitles, and so on. Navigation menus are marked up as HTML lists. This ensures that the number of links in the list is read out at the start and it can be skipped easily.
Where an image conveys important information, alternative text will be provided. If the image is used for a decorative purpose the alternative text will be left blank.
This site uses software called Cascading Style Sheets (CSS) to control all of the presentation and layout. If your browser or browsing device does not support style sheets, the use of structured semantic markup ensures that the content of each page is still readable and clearly structured.
Font sizes and colours can be changed by using your own custom style sheets or browser settings. The BBC has an excellent guide on how to do this for various browsers and systems.
The content on this site has been written and formatted to make it accessible and the site is fully accessible if scripting is unavailable.
The pages on this site conform at a minimum to Level A compliance as specified by the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines and endorsed by the Royal National Institute for the Blind (RNIB). This site also meets the majority of Level AA and AAA requirements. Most of the pages validate as XHTML 1.0 Transitional and use structured semantic markup and our CSS also validates the pages. We are committed to providing services online in line with the Disability Discrimination Act (DDA) 2005, as required by the Disability Rights Commission (DRC).
