Commissioned by
@2021visualarts as part of their
@tate and
@nationalgalleriesscot ARTIST ROOMS: Jenny Holzer presentation, back in April we ventured through the public spaces and shared sites of Scunthorpe to try to understand what it is that makes somewhere ‘public’.
Using methods of image making, clay relief, mark making, writing, sound recording, drawing, and conversation, we passed through three of Scunthorpe’s spaces: Central Park, Rowland Road Park, Frodingham Footbridge, and Church Square.
What emerged was, hopefully, a new connection with the habitable, public spaces of the town, and a deeper sense of ownership of them.
I will meet you here is a collaboration between
@alexanderstubbss and
@_wesfoster_ and others, exploring the potential of somewhat forgotten spaces in a city.
Thank you to
@psithurisminthewolds for programming and trusting us, and to the staff at 20-21 for hosting the space post-workshop. Thank you, too, to the people who chose to spend their time with us on that sunny morning!
Swipe to the end to hear a climbing frame being played with an egg shaker and tuning peg!
