Biennial
AiR
has collaborated with Liverpool Biennial in 2002 and 2004. We worked
with a group of non-attenders/alternative curriculum students from Speke
Community Comprehensive (now Parklands High).
Exploring documentary photography and documentary writing we produced
a set of self portraits (with creative text), a landscape panorama and
a video.
The portraits and panorama were exhibited in Toxteth Library and the
Liverpool Community College as part of the Liverpool Biennial 2002 and
the students were given a tour of the other Biennial work as apart of
the project, declaring "Ours is the best".

Following on from the successful work produced for the Biennial 2002,
we have been working with 'A' level art students from St John Almond
Catholic High School in Garston.
Exploring the work of one of the Biennial
international artists, Yeondu Jung, we produced a set of 'Future/Dreams'
portraits. The work will be further developed into a double triptych
(3' x 7'), to be displayed in The Door café exhibition space
as part of the Biennial 2004 and later placed on permanent display in
St John Almond School.
