A MOSAIC OF ENDEAVOUR
For this socially engaged collaborative project I worked with the volunteers of the Fermoy Community Resource Centre to create an artwork that celebrated volunteering and acknowledged the volunteer’s contribution to community. While facilitating a rewarding and dynamic experience for the participants my vision also encompassed a desire to provided a space for the group to express themselves throug the visual arts, and a process of hands on creative endeavour. Embracing themes of sustainability, the project incorporated upcycling and recycled materials. The final form of the work, 4 outdoor mosaic tables, are conceptual narratives of the participants experiences of community volunteering and are used daily at the Fermoy Community Resource Centre.
