Working from SHOP
Today I was lucky to be making jewellery from SHOP in Stoke, Staffordshire.
SHOP
"SHOP is a new space in Stoke Town, Stoke-on-Trent, that transforms an empty shop into a venue for unusual and exciting performance, interventions and screenings. SHOP is working with a mix of the most interesting and exciting local, regional and national artists and producers to bring a truly eclectic mix of artistic activity to suit all tastes. We plan to take over Stoke Town with site-specific interventions, a hub of interesting creativity inside the SHOP and a couple of parties along the way. It is extremely important for SHOP that all activities involve a live action, that the location and people in the location are considered in the work, and that the Stoke Town and not only the shop become the site for the work. So far we have confirmed we will be working with locally based artists Kate Lynch and Anna Francis, biTjAM and Mark Brereton (Blurb) and more to come. SHOP is funded by Arts Council England & North Staffs Regeneration Partnership and supported by Blurb, Fierce, Urban Vision North Staffs, Staffordshire University and more.!
The pencil drawings are form another artist working from SHOP : Behjat Omar Abdulla (commissions undertaken).
SHOP is located in Stoke, on 116 Church street.
