changing spaces

“All of us come from varied backgrounds and create a range of styles of work, using various media and have different aspirations for our work and for our careers so being supportive of each other is paramount. The process of working together and having to compromise and listen to each other and understanding what is best for the exhibition, is very exciting and something that encourages the natural process of artistic collaboration. Being faced with challenges from the structure that a shop space offers and overcoming those challenges in a creative way. Utilising dead space and transforming it into a vibrant event space that actually generates itself as it goes along. With a few contacts and flexible, positive and open minded people on board anything seems possible!” Caroline Pedler hi5 member.
