WHAT IS EARTH? / sept 2018
WITNESS THE CURVATURE OF HULL FROM A SECRET LOCATION.
On 16 Sept 2018 What Is? Collective's 'What is...Earth?' event was hosted in a secret location. Our events are 'intimate and unexpected'. For this event the meeting point was announced 48 hours before to ticket buyers.
The adventure:
We met up in the arranged location and were guided by City of Culture volunteers, via a sound installation to the top floor (usually out of bounds to the public). We relaxed with a drink and enjoyed the amazing panoramic vantage, one of Hulls stunning sunsets and a brilliant monologue. We were then guided on to the next location, down to the back door of an old boiler house, through a workshop to the exhibition. Paintings, sound, poetry, performance and installation a one off experience. Plus a piece created from peoples reactions across Hull, to the question 'What is...Earth?'

what is light? / March 2018
March 7th 2018 at Heads Up Festival, part of Battersea Arts Centre's Collaborative Touring Network. The theme was 'What is...Light?'
It started with a guided exploration of the Lowry-esque Wincolmlee industrial estate at night, with its amazing history, sharing artworks created by our artists on route and passing some of the graffiti by artists such as the renowned 'Banksy' before reaching our hidden venue and exhibition. The exact location of meeting place was be disclosed 48 hours before the event via email to ticket holders.
For the event cross discipline artists were paired. One creates, one responds. Both reflected on the chosen theme and go on their own journey of self-inquiry and reflection. Throughout the process they provide support to each other producing some beautiful work.
