Lines Connecting is a print-making project happening over a period of approx. 9 – 10 weeks, between artist Jules Michael and service users from Delta Hanover, the Carlow based centre that provides training, day and multi-sensory services to adults with learning disabilities.
The title, Lines Connecting, reflects the creative actions within it, as the project is designed to include – and connect – members of Delta Hanover, the artist, and creative actions. A distinctive element to Lines Connecting is that service users will train certain staff members of the centre in the use of a small table top printing press. This will leave a legacy for creative self-action and facilitation within the centre into the future.<\/p>\n
Jules uses nature based themes in her practice – native plants,hedgerows and folklore;these will form part of the creative frame for Lines Connected, weaving a circular and embedded relationship between Delta artists and a professional artist’s practice. Participants will use visual research gathered from Tate, MOMA, etc. & artists’ monographs Jules is examining in her own studio as part of her practice. If a participant is working in a specific way, Jules researches contemporary artists working with similar methods, creating a reciprocal conversation between participant, the art work being made, and contemporary visual research.<\/p>\n
Lines Connecting will conclude with an exhibition of work created over the time of the project in the public exhibition space in Carlow Library.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":0,"featured_media":41350,"template":"","class_list":["post-41349","event","type-event","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"\n
