Latest Project News

It has been decided that due to problems co-ordinating space and timetables the workshop activities at the Glade and Michael Ayers will be postponed until next term, this will mean that they take place in the new school. This is, I think, the best way forward, it also presents possibilities for workshop activities related directly to the new building to happen in the building.



Workshops are proceeding at BRCC. Sessions 1 & 2 are all about mapping, students are using massive sheets of paper to develop work using anything and everything to create their own extraordinary maps fusing Bognor with the rest of the world. Session 3 has swerved off into a new direction focusing on signs and symbols. See the new slideshow in the column to the right (click on any of the slideshows to see a bigger version). The 'Identity Crests' created in the third session last week were very good, developing interesting ideas using bold colours, symbols, fonts and graphic layout. I plan to further develop these ideas in the next session.



Alongside, and in response to, the workshops I have been developing my proposals for the Arts Steering group. Appropriately enough, there are a number of different directions this could develop into. My intention is to use the presentation on the 14th Oct to examine the alternative destinations and make some decisions about what route to take. Here are a few taster pics of some sculptural ideas in development.
