Description

The project will be the first major exhibition at Wakefield Exchange which is due to open March 2025. The building, once the city's former Market Hall, has now been converted into a dynamic creative hub offering a lively and communal cultural space for residents, visitors and local businesses in the heart of the city.

The exhibition and new artwork will be informed by an extensive programme of artist-led workshops focussed on local disabled community groups and artists. Other sculptures by the artist will also be included in the exhibition alongside interactive multimedia digital projections using cutting edge technologies and production methods.

Alongside the exhibition there will be extensive community and school engagement, a district-wide touring showcase of the artist's earlier work and a mentoring programme with micro commissions for local disabled artists.

Romsey Recreation Ground Public Art

The City Council wishes to appoint an artist or artist collaboration to lead, develop and deliver the project. A high level of community interaction is expected from the artist/s, and this will require them to engage and collaborate with local people as part of the design process. Working with Ward Councillors and the local community to develop a new public art installation in Romsey Recreation Ground, we wish to target artists whose practice and experience are inspired by themes relating to environment, ecology, biodiversity, and scientific exploration. The work will be developed and authored by an artist engaging with the community and responding to an open brief. The Romsey Recreation Ground public art commission represents a significant possibility to create meaningful artwork that celebrates and enhances the site's ecological importance while strengthening community connections. Through widely promoting the opportunity to local artists and allowing an open, inspiring brief, this commission can deliver artwork that meets expectations and creates a lasting legacy for the community.
