Muddy Arts-why so quiet?

What is happening with Muddy Arts Collective?
It has been a bit quiet for us recently. We had
that project at The Green Backyard, which I advertised
here and on myspace a bit, but didn't take
time to write up about the finished results and
show you guys the lovely photos.

So apart from that project, which I will write more on later,
we have been looking into leasing a new property in
the centre of Peterborough. It will be a creative
production space, a sound recording space, a gallery
a space for a working office and a space for presenting
workshops on poetry / art / music. Yeah! Sounds cool.
But it is taking a long time to happen. And we may need
change of use throught the planning department, which may be
a pain in the arse. It is a wonderful space, and I just want
to get in there and start doing something. But alas it seems at
present that even if we were given the keys tomorrow there would
still be weeks / months (probably the latter) until building work
was finished. So it has been frustrating, everything has been on
hold really. More news soon, and details / photos on that
Green Backyard project too!

Muddy Arts & the Green Backyard sculpture project

artists needed in Peterborough for sculpture project

Muddy Arts is teaming up with the Green Backyard, an urban garden project in Fletton, Peterborough, and East Ex, a materials reclaimation organisation, to create 25 + sculptures for their urban garden to be shown over the August bank holiday weekend.

The weekend will also feature live painting, graffiti, workshops, music, food and other such wonderful activities.

We will be using materials from East-Ex to create the sculptures. Hence general theme of this is reuse and recyling linked in with nature

If you would to make a sculpture please contact me as soon as poss so
we can get started on registering you and sorting logistics to get the materials to you, and your work to the site. Remember that they don't have to be huge monoliths! We have approx four weeks to do this so time is of the essence!!
