Exploring Architecture at Farrell
Last week a small group of students from Year 8 and 9 visited the Farrell Centre in Newcastle University. Students visited an interactive contemporary art exhibition called ‘The Architect has Left the Building’. It’s an exhibition revolving around a large-scale film installation by renowned photographer and filmmaker, Jim Stephenson, exploring how people use buildings and spaces once the architect‘s work has finished. Students began by exploring the exhibition then went onto work with artist Sam Selley in a small workshop on printing techniques. All students and staff had a brilliant afternoon, and we look forward to using these techniques in school.
