Your Work Here

Creative Wick was commissioned by Peabody Housing Association to curate Your Work Here, a series of fine art paintings along the hoardings of Neptune Wharf construction site in Fish Island.
In collaboration with The Wick Art Store, Creative Wick, selected thirteen local fine artists, not used to working outdoors, to create a series of paintings alongside the hoardings that would reflect the past, present and possible future of the site, the Fish Island Village. Apart from their commission, artists were also given credit to buy their own materials for this project at The Wick Art Store.

The artists all installed their work on the same day and the event was captured by local filmmaker, Souleyman Messalti.

Artists included: Georgie Mason, Takayo Akyiama, Mike Worobec, Susan Supercharged, Luis Martin Munoz, Alexei Baranov, Christopher Farrell, Cristina BanBan, Jordanna Greaves, Nuha Ruby Ra, Maxwell Patternoster, Natalie Ryde, Thomas Moore.

With special thanks to: Elza Zvaigne, Nima Tehranchi, Teddy Baden, Souleyman Messalti, Print East London and The Wick Art Store.
