“Connected”
This workshop will take place throughout the week, where students from Lincoln, Latvia and the Netherlands will develop a participatory art project that celebrates the strengths of 2 different neighbourhoods – one in Lincoln and one in Liepaja. The participants will spend the week observing and engaging with the locals to reveal the underlying/invisible layers that should be emphasized but until now perhaps have gone unnoticed. Through this approach the multi national team will discover and reveal the humane aspects of the neighborhood and then collaboratively design and produce an output for exhibition / reflection. At all stages of the project, locals will be invited to join us on this journey of discovery.
The participants will be interacting with the public throughout the week, and on the Thursday and Friday be situated in the Waterside centre creating and presenting their findings.
