"Identity" Sculpture Project Brings Art to Young People at Andover Education Centre

28/4/2014

 
IDENTITY was a sculpture/3D project with 2 groups of young people from Andover Education Centre. It ran from January - March 2014 and explored identity through the manipulation of common place items. In this case, CHAIRS.
The young people had been excluded from mainstream school, many are struggling with learning disabilities and/or behavioural difficulties.

This project gave them the opportunity to:
  • Visit ‘Chapel Arts Studios’ (for many, their first trip to any kind of gallery or venue)
  • Work with professional Artist David Dixon
  • Express themselves through creating a personalised chair sculpture
  • Be part of a final exhibition at Chapel Arts Studios
  • Achieve a Bronze Arts Award

Charlotte Slinger from Hampshire County Council initiated and organised the project.

David Dixon at Chapel Arts Studios devised and ran the project.

Sarah Gaiger was the splendid teacher from the Andover Education Centre that held it all together for us!
