Artist in Residency 2011

Into the lead up to the celebration of  children's week 2011 Pocketfool is currently artist in residency with  city of Melbourne child care centres Lady Huntingfield CC , Melbourne City CC, Hotham Hub CC, North Melbourne CC, Central Carlton CC.

Pocketfools Aim is to enrich the children's experience of participating in a interactive  performance of "Wishhhh!" by exploring the themes, its visual and musical elements,  the inspiration  and theatrical  techniques involved in crafting a performance  via workshops,  in weeks prior to attending the performance of  "Wishhh!"  to be performed  during children's week at ARTPLAY.

The drawings,  construction and ideas generated by the children  in these workshops will be used by Artist Geoffrey Ricardo to  incorporate their  ideas  into the final design of  suitcase  filled with nesting boxes... which the children will discover when  they are joined by their families in  participating  in  the interactive performance of "Wisshh! " 

At the end of each performance the child care centre  will each be presented with their piece of  suitcase art to do as they will. Pocketfool is excited about this opportunity and looks forward to the  imaginative  outcome!
