Arts Group Meeting
March 6, 2018 @ 2:00 pm - 3:30 pm
The next meeting of the Arts Group will take place on Tuesday 6 March at 2:00pm, with a talk by Michelle Rowley.
Michelle is a lecturer on the Fine Art programme at Wirral Met College where her teaching and arts practice involves printmaking and artist’s book production. Through these related practice areas, she has worked on regional and international collaborative projects with other universities.
In 2009 she initiated a long-term collaboration between Brigham Young University, Utah and Wirral Met, on projects involving ideas about our relationship to ‘place’, why we value certain environments above others, and how artists might interpret these themes.
Her talk will reveal a line of enquiry, demonstrating her current investigation into nature and commerce in the city. Linking business parks and urban commons with an artist’s eye on the debates surrounding city planning and how the public’s improvised everyday use of our cities ‘places’ makes them their own.
