The Project Lab #1

Working with year 9 students as part of their specialist school programme we are creating 'The Project Lab' - a place for experimentation, collaboration and sharing.

During the first session we conducted research into 'active' artistic practice and the ideas behind the actions. There was one rule: they were not allowed to ask "yeah, but, what's this got to do with art?" until after half term!

The group had the choice to work individually or to create collectives and start to explore the ideas that are important them...




A list of the proposed ideas so far are...
  • female identity in the social media age
  • zines & vines
  • dark and light spaces in the city
  • textures and missed details
  • randomness- everything's mixed up!
  • race and sterotypes
  • mapping, adventures & exploring
