Collaborative project + public display
Conversation To Creation: Henry Moore x University Centre Colchester
Studios & Gardens, Hertfordshire
This event has passed
As we open for our new visitor season, we’ve been collaborating with University Centre Colchester to reshape our Sheep Field Barn project space.
Responding to Moore’s iconic themes and studio spaces, students and tutors from the university have been experimenting with cross-disciplinary ways of working across both their Fine Art and Fashion and Printed Textiles courses.
The group have been considering how process-led practice develops and evolves into collections of work, out of the studio and into display space individually, collectively and for others to experience.
For one week in May, we’re opening up the project space for everyone to see the work they’ve created and continue the conversation.
See how their work embraces this season’s theme of Vitality, prompting questions of creative life force, how we move through the world, and the relationship of works with space, scale, their environment and each other.
The Sheep Field Barn is open daily, 11:00–17:00, for the duration of this event.
Entry to the display is included with your ticket.
