Prosper Arts Project – Event at WYC, and a display at the RYA Dingy Show!

Posted: Wednesday, 13 February, 2013

There will be an opportunity to view the output of the experimental stage of the joint arts project between WYC and local artists Tracey Falcon and Andy Evans on Friday 22nd February from 1930 at Whitstable Yacht Club. As well as being another opportunity to view the photos taken from the helicopter and plane in 2012, there will be a projection of the material collected and collated since the collaboration began, with an artistic twist! The night will also be the first opportunity to see the Laser sail printed with artwork that was specially commissioned for the project. After it’s unveiling at the club, the sail will then be put on display on a stand at the RYA Dingy Show in Alexandra Palace on 2nd and 3rd of March.

The event will be open to club members, friends and guests on the February Friday evening, and you will be free to dip in and out of what is going on for as long or as short a period as you like. It will be a chance to discuss the Prosper project with Andy, Tracey and Richard, and explore the opportunities for this project to continue. Aerial pictures taken during the experiment will be available to view, and copies can be ordered for private purchase. Those who came to the event on 5th January and who have already said they would like additional copies of pictures will be able to purchase them on the night. If you would like to purchase specific pictures to take away on the evening, please let Richard Earland know by Tuesday 19th February so that they can be printed in advance.
