- Put on an exhibition as they wanted it to exist outside of uni
- Involves work created by others-was very free, just had to keep the artwork in a square
- Did the branding in the uni so it cost as little as possible, screen printed
- Invites, sent to different studios etc
- Good turn out
- Free badges and catalogues for people to take, making it more engaging and advertising it subtly
- Created a playlist of 27 club artists
- Issues with time management since other briefs were still going on at the same time
- Stick to deadlines
- Take pictures and have good quality evidence to show in the future
The students from the 27 Club then set us a task in which we were to work in groups and pick out a word from a box, we would then come up with a pitch for an exhibition based on this word. The word we got was 'separation'.
We started by making a list of things associated with separations; divorce, break ups, leaving home, being away from what you're used to, missing items/items you lost when you were younger. We decided to base the exhibition off the idea of being separated from items that you have lost.
The separation exhibition would allow the public to bring in items that they have found or lost, which would allow people to possibly find the item that they have lost and be re-connected with it. The exhibition would also have an Instagram page where photographs of lost/found items would be posted.
We displayed our idea in a humorous way in order to create contrast and distract from the theme of losing something, as it isn't a happy concept. We created 'missing' posters which used emails that Simon regularly sends out about items that have been lost in the studio; memory sticks, cables etc. The posters also contained tearable elements which links to the idea of something being missing. The tearable papers include details of the Instagram page (where to find the lost items)
