The four largest could not be included in a previous application because of their size, and so have been given their own application.
The first, by David Galbraith, would be of a car landscaped into the ground, with a cobbled street created underneath.
The second, by Balfour Beatty, would be a plinth for sculputral displays.
the third, by Louise McVey, would be a flower trumpet tree, while the final one, by Nichol Wheatley, would be of a snake rising and sinking into the earth.
