Birmingham University
TETRA
Alongside artists Sophie Handy and Ildiko Nagy we are working at a series of festivals this summer to create 5 community artworks to be exhibited on Campus in August.
We are linking the artworks to some of the strands of research the University is engaged in, to open up conversation with the local communities.
A Fairer World
Connecting Cultures
Global Health
Life changing technologies
Thriving Planet
Windsor Academy Trust
I am working with Reception Children in 7 schools within the Academy to create painted wooden artworks on the theme of "Belonging".
We are using pallet wood, wood offcuts and paint.
There will be 8 pieces that will connect together to create a large artwork that will be exhibited and then each piece will return to each school where it will reside. The final piece will be a mixture of painted pieces from all the schools involved.
The theme of belonging is enabling children to become aware that they are part of a family of schools that make up the Trust.
