Being Human Community Art Workshops - Exhibition

I have recently been working on a Community Art Project, which explores the theme of what it is to be Human.

The 12 week course gave the participants an art/sculpture experience designed to explore what it means to be human within 3 points of contact, humanity in contact with our environment, humanity in contact with each other and our inner world and humanity in contact with the spiritual/unknown. Using the four elements of fire; water; earth and air as starting points for inspiration and discussion.



Group discussion and word mind map developed from one of the meditations.

The work produced cumulates in an exhibition at the Atkins Building in Hinckley. From Monday 23rd September to Saturday 5th October. Those that visit the exhibition are asked to carry on the journey by making their own mark and by coming to experience the sculpture in sound, vision and touch and then to contribute to it themselves, so the sculpture keeps growing and represents the voice and experience of our culture

The grand opening is on Monday 23rd September at

 

12.30pm. and is open during Atkins opening hours 8.30-

 

5.30pm Monday to Friday.
