What is the story?

An exciting participatory arts project created by twelve nominated students from Matravers School, Westbury & Jill Carter, Social Engagement Artist. Exploring the theme of identity, the lads directed and undertook a series of performative journeys. Using a collection of found objects (toys), they set out to explore a world of work & play, responding to folk, everyday situations and environments along the way. The hugely creative process was documented with photography, film, drawings, dialogue & journals. There was potential to unearth, stories to unfold and dreams of a large rabbit, clown and group of black sheep ... finding their way, discovering new friends, standing out from the crowd, and truly becoming somebody!

POSSIBLE ENDINGS... a play & other stuff

FOR A PLAY OF POSSIBLE ENDINGS, click on below...





On talking about where to take the work next - the lads asked who would come to an exhibition. Good question, who will come and see the amazing work they have created?  Where could that exhibition be held?  There was a suggestion of the work being shown in an art museum, and why not!  We have created a series of artists & students contemporary portrait & landscape photographs - why not think big.  The series includes:

Andrew - Photobook & Essay
Eden - iPhoto Book/DVD
Will - Dairy of Events & Short Film
Jacob - Film & Painting
James - Poster
Chris - Map (abstract art)
Charlie & Ali - Slideshow & Music (to go on YouTube)
Kieran - Story
Henry - documentary photos
George & Harry - audio outtakes



Plus Charlie took brill documentary video of the Rabbit on it's first day out at work, great footage at the vets.  And where are the documentary photographs of the Butcher chucking the eyeball against the wall and talking about how an eyeball could float in a pint of beer.  We need to find the missing evidence.

All I know so far is that the Blog has received hits from UK, USA, Germany, South Korea and Monaco!  Rabbit, Clown & Five Black Sheep have gone global!
