Our 20 plus years of community participatory arts practice as individual artists enable us to support participants to create high quality art works while experiencing excellent opportunities for engagement in relevant and useful life skills.
Over the last 7 years we have devised and delivered creative interventions to community members that along with their individual art works have included
A large scale community clock, A full ‘recovery tram’ design, 4 large scale movie posters, Several large scale graffiti art works, Two ‘Fantasy’ art shops, A glass chandelier, and are currently working on a large scale mosaic for Revoe.
In short we have the ability to create unique art works with community members that create lasting impact and are meaningful to people we work with.
