The Measure of Things by Miles and Dacombe inspired by conversations at The Green Patch and on the Grange estate. This was a wonderful opportunity for the community to see that great art can happen in the most unexpected places! Work arrived or was made for just one day. If you missed the exhibition you can see a wider selection of the work on show on the Grange at the Size Matters show here 

Threads and Chatter - Threaded Mandalas at KBA

Artist Phiona Richards lead another delightful 

Threads and Chatter session at KBA.

Using lolly sticks and stirrers 

to create the spokes of a wheel 

the group wrapped colourful yarns 

around the spokes to create a woven 

pattern which could be hung in a window.

Excellent work and great fun!

The Binding Thread - Drawing with Light

In the dark afternoons of winter it is great to run about 

shedding a glow of light. 

We created blur images and static glow 

with artist Carole Miles and many glowsticks. 

The photos were created in December 2014

and January 2015

A Festive Sharing

During our Back To Books Friends, Volunteers and Management Christmas gathering in The Mollie we were invited to participate in the Artspace Sculpture Network New Year Brunch 2015 an opportunity to connect with artists and studios locally, nationally and internationally. Artspace is run and curated by Susan Williams MRBS and is located on Stamford Rd which also falls within our project postcode area so it seems an ideal way of connecting the area between KBA and The Green Patch.

Everyone brought food to share, explored The Green Patch, enjoyed exchanging news and ideas in The Mollie and left feeling excited about participating or visiting Susan's  Sculpture Network Brunch.

December Threads and Chatter at KBA

 Working with artist Phiona Richards young people 

and their parents from the KBA 

have been exploring threads and making conversation! 

we have been recycling cardboard, making patterns 

and winding threads to make decorations for the festive season, or any season!

 

After all our hard work we deserved a healthy snack!

As you can see we all had a fantastic time 

creating and recycling together!
