Coming Soon
 
Animotion

24 October to 9 January

 

Animotion celebrates animation in all its forms. With a focus on interactivity and pushing new and traditional animation techniques. This exhibition promises to be a colourful and inspiring exhibition for all to enjoy.

Works include time-lapse animation with a giant  zoetrope, colourful projections on the inside of a giant Day of the Dead inspired sugar skull, and interactive origami inspired artworks.

The exhibition is partnered with Academy Award  winners Aardman Animations and presents an        interactive Animate It! zone where visitors will be able to learn about Aardman’s film-making process and experiment with techniques including green-screen, stop-motion and zoetropes. 

This fantastic exhibition will be of interest for English, Media, Drama, IT, PSHE and Art curriculum topics.

 



 

Memorial Structure an exhibition by artist Robert Koenig
24 October 2015 to 20 February 2016 
 
Artist, Robert Koenig will be making a major new piece of work especially for the church space. The installation will create a space for contemplation, recollection and  reminiscence, decorated inside by using differing techniques that Robert has mastered over the past 35 years. Reliefs and sculptural carvings in his distinctive style will tackle themes of migration, loss, discrimination, fear and collective responsibility.
This new commission will be of interest for DT, PSHE, History, Geography and Art subjects.
