//SUPER CULTURE \\

freelance projects producer, 2021 onwards

 On-going work with Super Culture on various smaller and larger projects, supporting installation of artworks, artist support and develpoment via workshop sessions and more. 

 

Big Wall

Developed and delivered a year-long public art commissioning project working with young people to recruit a commissioned artist and co-create a new public artwork for Worle. A group of local Art Activists, aged 13 - 15 explored how different wall based art forms can be used to inspire and communicate ideas and messages in response to the local community and the wider world. The young people took part in workshops with professional artists, attended research trips and supported the delivery of public events. 



See Monster, 2021

Developing new public artworks and engagement activites in response to the See Monster national UNBOXED major public art installation in WsM in the summer of 2022, to develop, produce and deliver a season of activities with and for local communities in the town throughout the summer months. As part of this, I instigated a series of site-specific, text-based artworks along Weston’s seafront, and created a new arts trail map.   

*Arts Trail + Map 

 with designer Jono Lewarne

The public are invited to weave and wander their way around the streets of WsM to explore the town through a creative and curious lens.  The arts trail shines a light on public spaces and overlooked places, through inspiring artworks, exhibitions, installations, and happenings along the seafront and beyond.


*Letters for the Sea, Letters for the Land

A compelling miscellany of site-specific, word-based artworks, installations and audio works inspired by the sea, coastline, landscape and environment, people and place – to read, and listen to in location.

Look out to sea and take in contemplative words and reflective sentiments through the windows of the seafront shelters, and upon poster boards along the promenade. Featuring poems and texts by local artists, writers and poets.
