Goscote Monumental Arts Project - new Walsall hospice |
 |
| Overview of Consultation: |
As part of the development of the new Walsall hospice in Goscote, artists are working with the local community to develop involvement and understanding in the work of the Palliative Care Centre and the creation of pieces of artwork for the new building.
Three artists will be working with local residents to gather their thoughts and ideas. This consultation will inform the development of artistic works which will be placed in and around the new building, the works will take the form of a piece of stained glass for the Sacred Space, a 3D piece for the Courtyard and 2D photographic pieces for the interior. Workshops based around the theme of 'Celbrating Life' will be delivered to local people from communities around the Goscote site. Through sensitive conversations and creative participatory arts activities with local people, we will build up a background of material which will inform the creation of all artworks made. |
