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!

Props are everything!

Chris described how he felt much more part of a team than he experienced in class.  He was excited about the possibilities of an exhibition.  He said his Mum thought we should have a mini-Cannes Festival to share the stories with others.  Meanwhile, he wrote a list of what each journey involved:


  • 5 Black Sheep
  • Mirror
  • Red cape
  • Guns
  • Playing cards (NSPCC)
  • Jill (very important)
  • Bev (very Important)
  • Mini bus
  • Landscape


    Who was the leader?
