Process: Community Response to Lockdown for Arts by the Sea Festival
Process was a community arts project for the Arts by the Sea Festival in Autumn 2020.
Inspired by Luke Jerram’s In Memoriam, the project gave local people the opportunity to explore their own experiences and feelings of lockdown and COVID-19 through creative activities. The resulting community artwork, made from pillowcases in reference to Jerram’s use of bedsheets, was displayed on Sandbanks Beach as part of the festival.
“I was feeling quite creative in my head, that’s what attracted me to taking part. I did the first writing workshop and I hadn’t realised how angry I was til we did that workshop and I thought it’s got to be a volcano! Because that is what I felt like!”
