Wembley Vision
Period of professional development supported by a grant awarded from Arts Council England.
Various locations: 20 June 2013 - 31 March 2014.
I produced three projects - in Newtown, Wembley and Birmingham - using different forms of public engagement in their development and creation. I also undertook mentoring from three arts professionals to help guide and develop my professional practice. The progress and outcomes of the various projects and fields of enquiry were documented on this blog.

My Research & Development period is now drawing to a close. All of the projects have been completed and the mentoring is winding up.
Overall this research and development period has left in me a strong position. Working through the three projects has improved my confidence in my ability to deliver work to a high standard. I have learnt new methods of public engagement, and identified errors I was making in previous projects.
The mentoring helped me to take an objective view of my practice and organise my networking and self-promotional techniques.
I am now prepared to build on this knowledge and experience and move my career forward.

News,
Yesterday’s Viaduct launch and walk was excellent. A really good turnout with lots of interested and interesting people.
The weather behaved for the walk, allowing everyone to get a good look with fresh eyes at the Viaduct, and spend time talking and discussing the idiosyncrasies of the structure.
On our return some thoughts, ideas and comments were pinned up on the wall.

A sneak peak at A3 Project Space after I scrawled all over the walls.
The printouts were from Graham Laucht, who has amassed an archive of historical material about the Viaduct. The drawings show the original designs with many notes and unrealised features.
I may have to return to add some more to the walls. Graham had so much information it almost derailed me!

Tomorrow I’m going to set up a display for Viaduct at A3 Project Space in Digbeth. This display will provide a backdrop for the launch of the Viaduct publication on 15 March - offering a sneak peak at some of the content, and helping to provide some more as it will also allow visitors to leave responses and feedback about the Viaduct.
