Victoria and Albert Museum
Seeing Red: Posters of Protest and Dissent
One Box, 12 postcards, supplemented by a copy of the cards and new audio over the lifetime of the exhibition
- Oral history recordings made of the (living) original printmakers talking about the work they made in the 70s. Postcards depicted original posters.
- Box was installed in the Seeing Red exhibit at Lansbury Micro Museum, plus hyperlocal in-school outreach when the museum was closed. Students were interviewed to hear their responses to the social themes raised by the posters, and this was incorporated into the exhibition.
- Collaboration with sound expert Lucia Scazzocchio.
