Exploration: Shared Fragments - Breathing, Repetition, Movement and Care
Creating connections between A' level and GCSE students’ work, artist in residence Amy Leung and the wider community, Shared Fragments explores: bodies, everyday actions, performance and our locality of Peckham. The ways in which we have shared experiences over the past year and a half has been fragmented due to the Covid pandemic. However, certain themes persist, questions replay throughout our everyday lives; we continue to rethink and reform identities, stereotypes and changing social issues through the art we make.
The Shared Fragments exploration initially introduced themes of breathing, repetition, movement and care working with various groups of GCSE and A'Level students. Students explored materials and processes, playing with ideas and reflecting upon newly introduced Covid precautions. These precautions impacted creating and collaborating together in the classroom and the work that evolved through these creative conversations is a culmination of persistent, playful explorations responding to such unusual circumstances.

Exploration: Shared Fragments - repetition through materials and bodies
This two year exploration supported various creative conversations with students in the classroom, however, as always a vital aspect of our explorations is to ensure the research evolves with and through the local community. Bringing the creative discussion out beyond the walls of the classroom to engage with a local audience was more of a challenge this time with the pandemic, however, through the Peckham Festival, we were once again able to share the creative research of HGAED artists in collaboration with Amy Leung.
