"From small beginnings, complicated projects have developed week by week." - Lewisham Homes Resident
Moving Art, was commissioned as a series of twelve bespoke, film-making and visual arts sessions based at an independent living scheme in Forest Hill. I designed and lead the project, supported by Christine Bone, Julie Yip, Ritchie Foster and Lauren Humphries. Over eight weeks, we appreciated and explored poetry, art and film-making processes with a particular focus on experimental film and animation. The process became driven by the group's open, curious approach leading to fascinating and unexpected conversations, ideas and outcomes, supported by the broad range of skills and experiences contributed by every person in the room.
