A SPECIAL PLACE - BUILT WITH US IN MIND

Exhibition: Tuesday 12 June – Sunday 1 July

This exhibition celebrates the creative process of making architecture from a young person’s point of view, focusing on a real architectural journey:
• field trips and workshops
• the dialogue and exchange of knowledge between the clients
• the Room 13 artists of all ages and the architects Mitchell Taylor Workshop watching close up as their new Room 13 studio was being built
• the day-to-day experience of making a architectural space work for themselves

Room 13 is an independent artists’ studio, based at Hareclive Primary School. The studio facilitates the work of young artists from the school alongside an employed professional adult artist-in-residence, providing an exchange of ideas, skills and experience across the ages. Room 13 aims to promote artistic & intellectual development, along with business & enterprise skills since each management team of young people must meet the running costs of their own studio.

‘We can’t wait to move into our new studio as we feel it is a massive sign of young people from Hartcliffe making things happen for themselves.’
Lauren Budd, 11 years old, Secretary 2006/7

On display will be drawings, photographs, sketch-up images and time-lapse films from the young person’s perspective (9 – 14 years of age).
