‘In Transit to Royal Albert Wharf’ Exhibition Private View

Transit Grp. is a collective of early-career artists who aim to create a peer-to-peer network and build an environment for art-making with no limitations on medium or format. Inspired by encounters within transitional urban spaces, they designed a workshop, during which the participants would be asked to produce a piece of work on their journey to an agreed location at a given time.

tAlthough the destination is set, each participant’s journey will be different. This prompts them to look and notice. The push to make quickly is meant to help contributors think creatively and make do with what is available. Experimenting, taking risks and embracing failure are the foundational principles of the workshop. Once at the destination, participants are encouraged to have an open discussion, which is meant to help them contextualise their experience and the works they may have produced along the way.
