Play with the possibilities of drawing and see where your creativity takes you. Step into the Creative Space and add your mark to an evolving artwork across the gallery walls and floors.
Join Artist in Residence Briony Barr in a participatory tape drawing guided by creative parameters. As time goes on, transformation takes shape – and not just in the drawing. Over time, tape is removed (‘undrawn’) and reshaped into sculptural objects for display. It’s ever-changing, so you can visit again and again.
Alongside the collective artwork, Briony will creatively respond to the evolving artwork through a series of drawings on paper and one large-format, durational drawing made with tape.
Imagine it. Make it. Tape it!
As part of her residency, Briony will be in the space engaging in the creative process. Dates to be announced soon.
