Muddy Arts Update:
Grassroots Festival 5/6/7th September 2008
The art boards are going very fast and have created quite a bit of excitement. It now looks like the festival itself will be very active with artists producing a lot of work live on site. Artists from Locality, a local Hip Hop crew, the Muddy Arts Collective, Kelzo and friends from Manchester, and many others have all agreed to get involved. (check out www.kelzo.com) The boards measure 8ft x 4ft and can be painted both sides. If you have other art work you wish to display, on fabric, taurpaulin or board please contact me and I will try to accommadate it in the site. We want as much art on site as possible, so don't be shy.
“No Protection” is an additional feature to the site and will present artwork on small boards, cardboard etc. cable-tied to Harris fencing (the standard metal fencing you see around building sites) The idea of this project is for artists to donate art work to the temporary gallery, which festival goers can buy, proceeds going to St Teresa's Homeless Shelter. The work will be hung in the open air, hence “No Protection”. The work can be brought along or made on site, materials will be available.
If you have any old sofa cushions, curtains, fabric, wood, chickenwire, bedsheets, half used paint pots, wool, rugs,blankets,string,net curtains,tablecloths or anything else you think we could use we would be very grateful!!
Any other ideas for art on site please contact Luke on: lukepayn@hotmail.com
