Gallery for 2002.
In 2002 artist Ivor Arbuckle of Splinter Community Arts Ltd and the writer
Maria Whatton were commissioned to work with the users and volunteers
at the MIND drop-in-centre in Burton on Trent. The work was a development
from the previous project and its brief was to try to create writing and
visual narratives using the work from "Compilation ..." as a
starting point. The result is an exhibition of digital artworks and writing
and ultimately this web-site!
The project was again developed by members of Mind with the support of
East Staffordshire Borough Council's Community Arts Programme. It had
the dual aims of helping people develop their creative 'voice' and promoting
the services of Burton Mind.
The project was funded by East Staffordshire Borough Council, Staffordshire
County Council, Consolidated Charities of Burton upon Trent and West Midlands
Arts.
