A look at a Roman Forum by artist @oliviergrossetete382 and built using cardboard boxes and parcel tape in Leicesters Jubilee Square as part of the Old Town Festival. @leicestercouncilnews In this film we follow the construction of a cardboard Roman Forum from public workshops in the @highcrossleicester shopping centre through to assembly Minecraft style on the location it once stood for real in Ratae (Leicester) in the modern Jubilee Square. The public (and Sir Peter Soulsby Mayor of Leicester) come together to help with the construction of the impressive structure using parcel tape and a willingness to work together, after several hours work the structure towers over the roman encampment beside it and a building from Leicesters past once again graces the skyline. Then as was the fate of the empire from which it came the temporary structure is raised to the ground and children gather to squash the cardboard before it`s taken to a waiting Rubbish (refuse) truck to be recycled...
