Art First – All The Colours

Seed Sedgemoor have teamed up with four local artists and Buses of Somerset to create an opportunity for you to get creative on the bus! Artists Fiona Campbell, Karl Bevis, Jem Dick and Sharon Jacksties are working on three projects which will produce artworks co-created with Buses of Somerset passengers and staff and other members of the community. The finished works will be displayed on 30 buses across Sedgemoor. Those currently travelling on buses can take part on board, while those working from home can join in remotely.

SAW member Fiona Campbell is one of the commissioned artists leading  Art First  with her project, All The Colours. She is inviting people to create a collage in one dominant colour, reflecting on their responses to a bus journey, the past year, a particular experience, mood, feeling, moment, personal or global memory. The images will be part of a co-created artwork which will be transformed into a hologram chameleon. This will change colours at different viewpoints and will be featured on 30 buses for passengers and community to enjoy.

There will also be FREE workshops, prizes and an online exhibition.  If you’re in Sedgemoor, or know anyone who is, do get involved!
