Sandpit

A cross art-form, experimental series of creative-play sessions

It holds space for artists to hone their tools in a condensed creative process, encouraging them to lean into pressure and optimise decision making. Artists choose how they want to engage, signing up either as a participant/performer/practicing artist, or creator/choreographer/director.

Curator, Jag Popham, will lead participants through a warm up and allocate groups, followed by a few hours to create a piece of art based upon a given provocation, before returning and sharing what has been made. Each edition will include artists from a different medium - musicians, filmmakers, visual artists, writers, theatre-makers and more!

Each iteration of Sandpit revolves around a curated theme, serving as a prompt to spark the imaginations of participating artists. But while the themes may guide the artists, there are no limitations or expectations as to where their curiosity may take them. "
