It’s all about the conversation – in everything we do.  We’ve developed ways of working over the years which were identified by Tim Mason, one of our US colleagues from Touchable Stories, as:

Who Am I? – What is my issues/agendas/concerns

Who Are We Together – What are yours and how do they converge?

What are we going to do together

How are we going to do it?

We follow these simple processes at the start of a project in order to make sure that we begin on the right track, and stay there.  This means that all our projects are ‘bespoke’ – no two are exactly the same as no two situations, circumstances and groups of individuals are the same.  So we use whatever art forms and creative approaches seem appropriate once we’ve sorted out ‘who are we together’.  This has included film and media projects, performances in all fields, digital and online projects, interventions, installations.  We do this by using our extensive networks gained through years of experience in making ‘art where you live’ to put teams of professional artists together to create the work devised.  We always aim to keep theart at the centre of the work we make, to be the driving force behind the creative energies intitiated through our projects ‘in the real world’.
