It was a privilege to be part of the team delivering an extensive sculpture based educational project during Autumn 2021. As well as our clients making work, the freelancers, staff and volunteers were also invited to respond in 3D whilst considering our relationship with the museum.
"Supporting Structure"
This one off work was my response to the brief; based upon the supportive base of the inspiring Witcombe Cabinet it acts as a metaphor for the supportive nature of the Pathways to Wellbeing project. Incorporated into the ornamentation are acknowledgements of previous projects which include heads, coil pots, matisse slab pots and spoons.
