As the project was a public realm commission for Creative Darlington, the exhibition has been situated in a vacant shop space in the Queen Street Shopping Centre as opposed to a conventional art space. In doing this we hope to help the regeneration of the high street, by animating an empty space, as well as attracting an audience for the work who may not usually engage with the arts. The decision to exhibit work on the high street was also informed by working during the pandemic, when traditional art venues and museums had to close to the public. Exhibiting in shop window spaces reduces the risk of our exhibition not being accessible to a live audience.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEitmhiUyLlJLAP_RiSn9VbRLFeHqyB7Khn8jEh-UlbbA5t3FBxI-1KqgdOsvGLFaNK5rtmkeikieUqynJKA4tAcq_hwK-GGMg8K6M-75cwDeRUNYddeWU2lGbZ8HZHqICqm4hGIGvFdqus/s1500/drawing-of-soanes-buildings-by-joseph-gandy.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="565" data-original-width="1500" height="242" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEitmhiUyLlJLAP_RiSn9VbRLFeHqyB7Khn8jEh-UlbbA5t3FBxI-1KqgdOsvGLFaNK5rtmkeikieUqynJKA4tAcq_hwK-GGMg8K6M-75cwDeRUNYddeWU2lGbZ8HZHqICqm4hGIGvFdqus/w640-h242/drawing-of-soanes-buildings-by-joseph-gandy.jpg" width="640" /></a></div><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">In considering how to exhibit our ten architectural models, we were inspired by the work of the 19th Century architect John Sloane whose work was illustrated by Joseph Gandy.

The main window was 8 metres wide and our models would have been lost without a visual focus. We decided that it was necessary to screen off the shop space by using a backdrop that could also be a display unit for the models. The Eames ‘Giant House of Cards’ construction toy informed the design of a giant slotted installation made out of hundreds of laser cut honeycomb cardboard pieces. The cardboard construction took a few days to fabricate using a laser cutting machine and took the two of us just over one day to slot together in its entirety. Laser cut stencil lettering using a blue and ivory colour scheme topped the display and titled our work.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgPrufjuLl9EwfDrr5PywBlt-lieyAaQzHeR-CYSlK1mVLTdlMP80kwNemi41wvEu24A29HM13t_bTieiCWBOh-YA2f23MbZVl9exPoUm72FTQp8_V8sPqxk1c_aRZ4n52OkgPOMR2NWI0/s1150/house-of-cards-giant.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="805" data-original-width="1150" height="448" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgPrufjuLl9EwfDrr5PywBlt-lieyAaQzHeR-CYSlK1mVLTdlMP80kwNemi41wvEu24A29HM13t_bTieiCWBOh-YA2f23MbZVl9exPoUm72FTQp8_V8sPqxk1c_aRZ4n52OkgPOMR2NWI0/w640-h448/house-of-cards-giant.jpg" width="640" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhxLe4_ZXn0GMeacqfeEtgJCOPULpyDikNHbD6unK8ET8aenHmXJcs4Ct-w6DYwAqY21U16LRIsYNcqKfBKzXFexMOu_FDsnJpezMdT3UrWzXYlXzs42-PYibOvUc2FX1VaiPjkQTZgmA4/s2048/55B842E3-2025-495F-AF8F-4E7340ECA44A.jpeg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="Paper engineered architecture laser cut cardboard pop-up of North East landmarks by Cabinet of Curiosity Studio for Grand Constructions project" border="0" data-original-height="1536" data-original-width="2048" height="480" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhxLe4_ZXn0GMeacqfeEtgJCOPULpyDikNHbD6unK8ET8aenHmXJcs4Ct-w6DYwAqY21U16LRIsYNcqKfBKzXFexMOu_FDsnJpezMdT3UrWzXYlXzs42-PYibOvUc2FX1VaiPjkQTZgmA4/w640-h480/55B842E3-2025-495F-AF8F-4E7340ECA44A.jpeg" width="640" /></a></div><p></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEize0v5WpEPcYjjwjE885X31TdCnq0sGEdUxaWNx34QafcSnw17KXlkt_nweGpOiOyH5LACGyFn5ZAqHOv1EfHAX1kUc-tGW6-oVLbeqyDjKcjjE8pihcVBzUZo0lW6rhWYwgY1s5On_Yw/s2048/30916D96-9801-4DE8-B503-E8724579568D.jpeg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="Paper engineered architecture pop-up of North East landmarks by Cabinet of Curiosity Studio for Grand Constructions project" border="0" data-original-height="1536" data-original-width="2048" height="480" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEize0v5WpEPcYjjwjE885X31TdCnq0sGEdUxaWNx34QafcSnw17KXlkt_nweGpOiOyH5LACGyFn5ZAqHOv1EfHAX1kUc-tGW6-oVLbeqyDjKcjjE8pihcVBzUZo0lW6rhWYwgY1s5On_Yw/w640-h480/30916D96-9801-4DE8-B503-E8724579568D.jpeg" width="640" /></a></div><div><br /></div><div>The paper models used kirigami (cut and fold) techniques and drew upon our growing expertise in paper engineering pop-up forms. Initially Edmond drew up the files for each model using CAD software with Caroline prototyping and refining these into paper engineered models. We wanted these to be large scale to maximise their impact and used one sheet of A1 paper at 300gsm weight per model. These were then backed onto an A1 sheet of contrasting gold paper before folding into a pop-up card form. The pop-ups required additional cardboard reinforcement to work at that scale and working on these models to troubleshoot material challenges has been very informative for future projects.</div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiygeN4hnH38y9K8-Fq-lQb-rkQhXVxfD42Yf2JAdLFp12_3HfSd34rxHKefLTe5X-_4guJmPZIqUsPRnk94saM2BCKmc6kAtz1CB9AZMOQGtoQd0xNdyzQa1db9OrXuAM71im1UlVD1JM/s2048/2F3CF602-F281-4C85-BFF3-9D9B524C53F7.jpeg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="Paper engineered architecture pop-up of North East landmarks by Cabinet of Curiosity Studio for Grand Constructions project" border="0" data-original-height="1536" data-original-width="2048" height="480" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiygeN4hnH38y9K8-Fq-lQb-rkQhXVxfD42Yf2JAdLFp12_3HfSd34rxHKefLTe5X-_4guJmPZIqUsPRnk94saM2BCKmc6kAtz1CB9AZMOQGtoQd0xNdyzQa1db9OrXuAM71im1UlVD1JM/w640-h480/2F3CF602-F281-4C85-BFF3-9D9B524C53F7.jpeg" width="640" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">We used a smaller window that was part of the same shop space to showcase the construction paper toy models available for the public to download and make at home.

font-family: "Times New Roman"; font-size: 18px; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px;">During 2021 Cabinet of Curiosity Studio have been busy working on Grand Constructions, an arts project that invites children to explore the architectural and industrial heritage of the North East of England. The project has been commissioned by Creative Darlington as part of their New in Town programme to support original creative projects informed by place and local heritage, and also supported by National Lottery Project Grants. </p><p style="background-color: white; font-family: "Times New Roman"; font-size: 18px; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px;"><br />
The project has involved creating a series of four paper toy-making templates to help children get crafting and start building paper landmarks connected to the North East. The series includes Darlington Clock Tower, Gaunless Bridge, Baltic Flour Mills and the Sydney Harbour Bridge. All the paper templates are designed to be printed at home with the designs finished with playful colours that will appeal to children.</p><p style="background-color: white; font-family: "Times New Roman"; font-size: 18px; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px; min-height: 20.7px;"><br /></p><p style="background-color: white; color: #444444; font-family: "Times New Roman"; font-size: 18px; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px;"><span style="color: black;">The idea for the Grand Constructions project originates from a short residency undertaken at the V & A Museum of Childhood that involved researching the </span>Robert Freidus Architectural Model Collection, a unique archive of over 140,000 paper models. Our aim was to investigate the educational value of architectural paper models, in particular, how they might be used to engage young people and families in creative design. In addition we sought to uncover paper craft techniques that could be incorporated into our existing skill set. </p><p style="background-color: white; color: #444444; font-family: "Times New Roman"; font-size: 18px; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px;"><br /></p><p style="background-color: white; color: #444444; font-family: "Times New Roman"; font-size: 18px; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px;">A significant element of the collection consisted of work by the French printers <span style="color: #333333;">Imagerie d'Épinal whose numbered series of beautifully illustrated cut-out card models of architecture called ‘Grandes Constructions’ and ‘Petite Constructions’ inspired us to create our own series of paper toy models for contemporary children to cut, fold and create.</span></p><p style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: "Times New Roman"; font-size: 18px; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px; min-height: 20.7px;"><br /></p><p style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: "Times New Roman"; font-size: 18px; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px;">The paper toys can be accessed on our website here: <a href="https://www.cabinetofcuriositystudio.com/pages/grand-constructions">https://www.cabinetofcuriositystudio.com/pages/grand-constructions</a></p><p style="font-size: 18px; line-height: 21.600000381469727px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-top: 0px; text-align: left;"><span face="MetSans, "Helvetica Neue", Helvetica, Arial, "Noto Sans SC", "Noto Sans TC", "Noto Sans JP", "Noto Sans KR", sans-serif" style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; background-color: white; caret-color: rgb(51, 51, 51); color: #333333; font-size: 16.024999618530273px;"><br /></span></p><p style="font-size: 18px; line-height: 21.600000381469727px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-top: 0px;"></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi-k9K2QKT3JliPszJW1fDJsuhc3Gh4rNGgGJKJ7Rvd_D_bZA7SZ4lgqG0ar8RAo5c5wRfegwhQ7SjfqFr5GdHJEKIsaKiuYR8QOnWkXewPguBOmFbf33g_Syds9Pu8tgh_ZxPw72jUrBY/s760/6E835BBE-A151-432B-A41B-27E4A922C928.jpeg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="586" data-original-width="760" height="494" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi-k9K2QKT3JliPszJW1fDJsuhc3Gh4rNGgGJKJ7Rvd_D_bZA7SZ4lgqG0ar8RAo5c5wRfegwhQ7SjfqFr5GdHJEKIsaKiuYR8QOnWkXewPguBOmFbf33g_Syds9Pu8tgh_ZxPw72jUrBY/w640-h494/6E835BBE-A151-432B-A41B-27E4A922C928.jpeg" width="640" /></a></div><br /><span face="MetSans, "Helvetica Neue", Helvetica, Arial, "Noto Sans SC", "Noto Sans TC", "Noto Sans JP", "Noto Sans KR", sans-serif" style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; background-color: white; caret-color: rgb(51, 51, 51); color: #333333; font-size: 16.024999618530273px;"><br /></span><p></p><p style="font-size: 18px; line-height: 21.600000381469727px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-top: 0px;"><span class="s7" style="background-color: white; font-size: 14px; line-height: 16.799999237060547px;"><br /></span></p><p style="font-size: 18px; line-height: 21.600000381469727px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-top: 0px;"><span class="s7" style="background-color: white; font-size: 14px; line-height: 16.799999237060547px;"><br /></span></p><p style="font-size: 18px; line-height: 21.600000381469727px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-top: 0px;"><br /></p></div>CABINET OF CURIOSITY STUDIOhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16053554391418671111noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6051261710281367004.post-84169750160778585042021-07-12T19:26:00.004+01:002021-07-12T20:15:10.673+01:00Wild Weekend Bender at the Charlie Whinney Studio<h4 class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left;"><!--[if gte mso 9]><xml>

Developing Your Creative Practice grant to enable time and space during 2021 to
research, experiment and enhance his craft by exploring timber techniques,
technologies and fabrication processes that can be used to create artworks.
This has included undertaking a recent professional training in steam bending wood techniques at the Charlie Whinney Studio in Cumbria. </span></h4><h4 class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: medium;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi0-J9uBOdrwIL6UzVhDM5wCHkEElbVsbQ03-M7JXsYegbrcqVLXMJiOPZpCp6Bi0OTZ3NEVbXAT2M_dvR8R8E0IgoBbCsUh9CQ1ywR19o1EuLd1WIMEPreytpuBODAg_g4JzojRH1TyWI/s1280/Charlie+Whinney+Studio+professional+steam+bending+course.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="720" data-original-width="1280" height="360" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi0-J9uBOdrwIL6UzVhDM5wCHkEElbVsbQ03-M7JXsYegbrcqVLXMJiOPZpCp6Bi0OTZ3NEVbXAT2M_dvR8R8E0IgoBbCsUh9CQ1ywR19o1EuLd1WIMEPreytpuBODAg_g4JzojRH1TyWI/w640-h360/Charlie+Whinney+Studio+professional+steam+bending+course.jpg" width="640" /></a></div></span><span style="font-weight: normal;"><h4 class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-weight: normal;"><br /></span></h4> I have recently completed an extended weekend course which demonstrated the magic of steam bending
from the miniature to the monumental. The Charlie Whinney Studio exists to
'explore the relationships between materials, people and the environment – and
sometimes find where beauty and usefulness meet. The studio researches the
existing methodology of steam-bending as well as developing cutting-edge
processes, innovations and ideas to facilitate new work. Charlie believes it is
essential to spread knowledge of this process to help enable low-embodied
energy wood products to compete and take the place of other less eco-friendly
materials where possible'.</span><span style="font-weight: normal;"> <br /></span></h4><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-weight: normal;"></span></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjS4dTR7DBnfY4IITKzVeFILx6xBeJidM6RdXpt8Q8Mnqcf6IEJg0lbXBWmH-EbWMPc37emDTbbb5H8A9DPlRV21f9RGsWWtiZdO6hNkem1_zLlu6Z0m5ZQKYQDBogrEY6SEBeTSfPzv0U/s1600/CHARLIE+WHINNEY+STUDIO_BARN+WORKSHOP.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1200" data-original-width="1600" height="480" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjS4dTR7DBnfY4IITKzVeFILx6xBeJidM6RdXpt8Q8Mnqcf6IEJg0lbXBWmH-EbWMPc37emDTbbb5H8A9DPlRV21f9RGsWWtiZdO6hNkem1_zLlu6Z0m5ZQKYQDBogrEY6SEBeTSfPzv0U/w640-h480/CHARLIE+WHINNEY+STUDIO_BARN+WORKSHOP.jpg" width="640" /></a></div><div><br /></div>The three day professional steam bending course took place
within Charlie’s studio housed in a converted barn in the beautiful Lake
District National Park, Cumbria, UK. Charlie works professionally as a designer maker and has an
expertise in steam bending wood at a variety of scales. He has carried out
numerous commissions in the UK and internationally, so participating in his
workshop was a fantastic opportunity to learn the secrets of this
unique craft.<p></p><p class="MsoNormal"><!--[if gte mso 9]><xml>

With this knowledge I was able to design and make a small batch production object: a prototype for a foldable wooden bag. This involved creating and cutting a plywood jig that was used to shape steamed strips of wood into the desired form for my bag design.</p></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiZpNOEKK_y-63SC4vtfeUQF7Ox_vmfF5fBrKDFj2RetV8v1vnCzjSZgEz08ixUiShUystcsZvbO6-Exr0AjQLqg5AyLFWtUAwzpVFpgCfPqoTgqzXWtBjvk0xUOfa-XZCvM_hxFRkCLZY/s2048/CHARLIE+WHINNEY+STUDIO_COMPRESSION+BEND.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1369" data-original-width="2048" height="429" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiZpNOEKK_y-63SC4vtfeUQF7Ox_vmfF5fBrKDFj2RetV8v1vnCzjSZgEz08ixUiShUystcsZvbO6-Exr0AjQLqg5AyLFWtUAwzpVFpgCfPqoTgqzXWtBjvk0xUOfa-XZCvM_hxFRkCLZY/w640-h429/CHARLIE+WHINNEY+STUDIO_COMPRESSION+BEND.jpg" width="640" /></a></div><p></p><p class="MsoNormal"></p><p class="MsoNormal"><!--[if gte mso 9]><xml>

</p><p class="MsoNormal">A chair making project provided the opportunity to
collaborate on steam bending wood on a larger scale. Working in partnership
with a fellow workshop participant, who was from a furniture design background,
initial sketches were transformed into a working prototype. I discovered
through the chair making exercise that steam bending is a very physical
activity that requires at least two people, continuous hydration of
participants and carefully choreographed actions to successfully realise the desired
outcome. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>The physicality of the process
and team dynamics involved in this craft techniques was highlighted towards the
end of the workshop when Charlie demonstrated monumental steam bending. This
required two additional assistants, heavy duty winches and equipment to bend a
slice taken from a full length tree trunk into a curved bench. <br /></p><p class="MsoNormal"></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgfinAMh-qmokOYbV0803DDvp8GEs2WgR-E_rVxdrsAOjcuvxG_IJCvKNXe468yByQlps200MtRwIpFozB1pU7Kj0_TUAyUNa-8aDhVNWpxV4eGOL0Qg5fW4GEZSDlPb3NXrSlVdA5sTKc/s2048/CHARLIE+WHINNEY+STUDIO_CHAIR+FRAME.jpeg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="2048" data-original-width="1536" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgfinAMh-qmokOYbV0803DDvp8GEs2WgR-E_rVxdrsAOjcuvxG_IJCvKNXe468yByQlps200MtRwIpFozB1pU7Kj0_TUAyUNa-8aDhVNWpxV4eGOL0Qg5fW4GEZSDlPb3NXrSlVdA5sTKc/w480-h640/CHARLIE+WHINNEY+STUDIO_CHAIR+FRAME.jpeg" width="480" /></a></div><p></p><p class="MsoNormal"></p><p class="MsoNormal"></p><p class="MsoNormal"></p><p class="MsoNormal"></p><p class="MsoNormal"><!--[if gte mso 9]><xml>

</p><p class="MsoNormal">Charlie believes that ‘Steam Bending is a process that opens
a lot of doors creatively. Knowledge of the process not only allows makers,
wood workers and artists to gain a deeper, more accurate insight into the real
nature of wood, but also provides the practical tools to fabricate designs that
wouldn't otherwise be achievable by any other process. <br /></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjz13zwO8eKaBudutkDcP1fYF9XU8NytBVTIERQlA3tIgPV987AZtnB40_TK9pxdSejwm7I7_Dk4TT734wM6vsGc0y6F37FDzIqnBhHemDM6QnHTY0A-ZNeQwVRZnX6PhDv3g_mIgZzvDk/s2048/CHARLIE+WHINNEY+STUDIO_MAKE+A+CHAIR.jpeg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="2048" data-original-width="2048" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjz13zwO8eKaBudutkDcP1fYF9XU8NytBVTIERQlA3tIgPV987AZtnB40_TK9pxdSejwm7I7_Dk4TT734wM6vsGc0y6F37FDzIqnBhHemDM6QnHTY0A-ZNeQwVRZnX6PhDv3g_mIgZzvDk/w640-h640/CHARLIE+WHINNEY+STUDIO_MAKE+A+CHAIR.jpeg" width="640" /></a></div><p></p><p>The long-weekend workshop

awarded Cabinet of Curiosity Studio one of five Reclaim the Redways
creative commissions to build on the increased public uptake in cycling
and walking during the pandemic.</p>
<p>MK Council COVID-19 Economic Recovery Funding has been allocated to
encourage people to walk, ride, scoot and use public transport more
often as they commute to work, explore their local areas, enjoy being
outside and take time out to improve their fitness. The result is
Reclaim the Redways, an inspirational and innovative programme of new
creative commissions. A panel selection process chose five commissions
from 24 proposals submitted.</p>
<p>Cabinet of Curiosity Studio will be creating and installing ‘a model
village’ around the Redway routes encapsulating the spirit of Milton
Keynes’ architecture whilst also providing sustainable habitats in the
form of Bee Stops, Insect Hotels and Bat Boxes. The collection will then
form part of a nature trail which will appeal to nature lovers,
families and children.</p>
<p>Other commissioned projects include Redways/Colourways by The Guild
Collective, natural dye artists with a shared passion for natural dyes
and heritage craft who will be running a series of natural dyeing
workshops that will involve participants in exploring the biodiversity
of the Redway routes, foraging the flora to make a unique natural dye;
Moths to Moonlight – A Lunar Cycle by Illuminos with participants
invited to take part in a dusk cycle ride with a miniature video
projector mounted to their handlebars depicting one of Milton Keynes’
unique moth species; Redways Reimagined by Lawrence Wheeler, Jo Szram
and Luke Mcdonnell, a giant augmented reality mural of the Redway
network, with image recognition built in so users can bring the network
to life; and Secret Intelligence Network by Rob Key a new documentary
film that will explore how Milton Keynes was a discreet centre for
secret intelligence in the UK with short films that will create an

I had originally intended to use the facilities at The Word to prototype textiles and costumes that integrated different types of fab lab technology but lockdown prevented this from happening.

for a diversity of commissions at a variety of scales. Their
paper-based artworks have been exhibited nationally and internationally
in settings that include museums, theatres, arts venues and the public

is a research fellow at the Pollard Institute (Bionanotechnology),
within the School of Electronic & Electrical Engineering. He is
interested in understanding how the biomolecular machines of our cells —
known as enzymes — work. To do this, he make movies of these enzymes —
which are a billionth of a metre in scale — performing their functions
within stages made from woven DNA molecules.</div>

When
the collaborators began their conversation, there seemed to be a common
interest in folding, whether that’s paper-folding or the folding of DNA
into nanostructures. Their original idea was to make an
origami-of-origami.</div>
<div class="hv hw er at hx b fk hy fm hz ia ib ic id ie if ig dm" data-selectable-paragraph="" id="5125" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="hv hw er at hx b fk hy fm hz ia ib ic id ie if ig dm" data-selectable-paragraph="" id="6fee" style="text-align: justify;">
Each
engagement began with a tactile session looking at artworks created by
Cabinet of Curiosity Studio. Origami can be an accessible artform that
is easy to connect with, but can also be extremely complex. As a
starting point, the artists began to look at using traditional Japanese
modular origami to build DNA structures that reflected Andrew’s
research. This playful interaction with the arts developed into deeper
conversations about how aligned the processes of science and design are.</div>

As
the partnership progressed, they realised that they shared many
reference points beyond simple folding, specifically an appreciation of
the virtues of “environments & spaces”. This became a reflection
point, as Andrew communicated his science, Edmond (Cabinet of Curiosity
Studio) highlighted how it seemed that an underpinning theme was the
creation of spaces or environments for the subject matter — in this case
enzymes — to inhabit.</div>
<div class="hv hw er at hx b fk hy fm hz ia ib ic id ie if ig dm" data-selectable-paragraph="" id="7932">
<br /></div>
<div class="hv hw er at hx b fk hy fm hz ia ib ic id ie if ig dm" data-selectable-paragraph="" id="c4f9">
Along
these same lines, Andrew described how when looking through a
microscope at cells, for example, one finds a terrain that could quite
easily be the hills and valleys of a landscape.</div>
<blockquote class="jj">
<div class="jk jl jm at es b jn jo jp jq jr js ig" data-selectable-paragraph="" id="ccd1">
<h3 class="es b jt ju ax" style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-size: x-large;">“You can almost inhabit this landscape, <b class="bf">it’s all just a matter of perspective.”</b></span></h3>
</div>
</blockquote>
<div class="hv hw er at hx b fk jv fm jw ia jx ic jy ie jz ig dm" data-selectable-paragraph="" id="46df" style="text-align: justify;">
This
continued when interviewing Andrew and his colleagues, Caroline
discovered that the researchers often used architectural terminology to
talk about the spaces they create and examine. The scientists and
artists found a common language in architectural terms — albeit
considering very different scales.</div>
<div class="hv hw er at hx b fk jv fm jw ia jx ic jy ie jz ig dm" data-selectable-paragraph="" id="46df" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="hv hw er at hx b fk hy fm hz ia ib ic id ie if ig dm" data-selectable-paragraph="" id="b2c8" style="text-align: justify;">
This
led to a discussion of about miniaturisation and doll’s houses. The
partners are now interested in creating spaces that people can feel like
they can inhabit. Their next line of enquiry is to explore how far you
can force the perspective when showing objects which are unfamiliar —
if, for example, it contained the structures of Andrew’s research.</div>
<br />
In
light of this, collaborators began drawing on art from the past,
especially from the Baroque era where people were exploring the creation
and presentation of immersive little worlds. In particular, they were
inspired by a particular Dutch perspective box by Samuel van
Hoogstraten (below). Caroline (Cabinet of Curiosity Studio) commented on how
this was like an early example of low tech virtual reality without the
technology — people can look into and inhabit this little world.<br />

These
discussions continued onto the origins of dolls houses and
miniaturisation of everyday objects to create representations of the
world. Originally intended as teaching tools, these later became toys.Through
these discussions the partners became interested in creating spaces
inspired by the science, such that people can feel like they can inhabit
microscopic environments. For example, a perspective box presenting the
inside of a cell, rather than a room with a chair. Their next line of
enquiry is to explore how far you can force the perspective when showing
objects which are unfamiliar — if, for example, it contained the
structures of Andrew’s research. Beyond simply science inspired works of
art, the fruits of this concept could potentially be presented as
teaching tools for STEAM engagements.</div>

Caroline's work for the Bowes Centre #Untitled10 2019 commission is currently on public display until 28 February 2020.
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The exhibition aims to give a unique and
experimental perspective by showcasing the creative processes of
the 10 artists involved in the commission. Stories
surrounding the Museum, its creation and history are being presented as
deliberately unfinished, work-in-progress objects, installations and
performances that will highlight the exploratory journey taken
during the commission. Hopefully it will provide visitors with an insight into the early research and development stages that artists and designers follow when starting a creative journey towards making new work.<br />
<br />
Key themes within this commission involved exploring the concepts of craft,
materials and making. I chose to explore paper materials and techniques, using a two-dimensional drawing of the museum architecture and other iconic objects within the collection as a starting point. I wanted to represent these objects as theatrical play things. This approach connected with my background discipline in theatre design and to the Bowes's theatrical backgrounds as performer and impresario. The Bowes Museum can be visually read as a vast stage set incorporating props, costumes and characters with the museum visitors acting in the role of the audience. I see that there is a lot of scope for developing my initial responses into fully realised work, such as an animated film or an illustrated storybook. Significantly, the project also highlights how museums and galleries can provide invalueable resources to artists, designers and makers by transporting us to alternative times and places outside of our everyday lives. The Bowes Museum embodies the creative spark that inspires imagination. </div>

An extraordinary Green House is due to open in Darlington on 12 September</h3>

In the nineteenth century, green spaces within urban environments
were identified as the ‘lungs of the city’ due to their air purifying
qualities. Cabinet of Curiosity Studio’s architectural Green House
installation showcases contemporary fabrication techniques using
materials that reduce toxicity in the home and contains a living
environment of plants that possess the most effective air cleaning
properties. </h3>
The design of Green House is inspired by Victorian garden
architecture and Japanese design. Japanese textile patterns were a
significant influence on the arts and crafts movement of the Victorian
era. Contemporary laser cutting technology has been used to fabricate
sustainable wooden materials using a traditional Japanese pattern as a
repeat motif on an architectural scale. The ‘paper’ roof uses origami
folding techniques to create a textile canopy that diffuses light for
the living plants inside the Green House structure.<br />
<br />
Cabinet
of Curiosity Studio ran a number of paper craft workshops in Darlington
with the support of Creative Darlington. These workshops gave
participants the opportunity to contribute their paper cut designs of
birds and flowers towards elements of the laser cut panels used within
the Green House structure.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<i>It forms part of a series of pieces with a clean air focus that is being
curated by the Festival of Thrift for its second Viewpoints project,
which sees sculptures, installations and artworks displayed across the
Tees Valley from 12 -19 September to prompt discussions about
sustainability issues.</i> </div>

Paper birds made during our paper crafts workshop sessions in Darlington Market supported by Creative Darlington. Thanks to Alex at Darlington Market for creating a space within the market where families and the public can engage with the arts. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The next stage in the process is to transform these colourful creations into laser cut images. These will be integrated into wooden laser cut panels within our Green House architectural installation, a Viewpoints commission for the Festival of Thrift.<br />

researching garden architecture of the Victorian era, with a focus on

Japanese katagami stencils, used within
the printing process of creating textile patterns for kimonos, were a significant influence on the arts and crafts movement of the Victorian era. Victorians expressed
these nature-inspired patterns through Western industrial innovations and materials, such as the cast iron architecture that typifies Victorian train stations and Darlington market. Laser cutting fabrication provides the opportunity to explore
these patterns on an architectural scale using digital crafts and contemporary
materials.<br />

<br />
We were interested to discover that Thomas Heatherwick explored Victorian-era gazebos in his early design work. He was interested in applying the ideas and craftsmanship usually
devoted to small objects to the larger scale of a
building. He also wished to explore architectural forms that were compact enough to build
himself before designing a pavilion that demonstrates how small scale architecture offers opportunities for designers to experiment with their techniques and materials.<br />

In an era of fast fashion, off the peg products, instantaneous apps and financial austerity, the process of research, development and prototyping of ideas can sometimes be viewed as a questionable luxury. Art, design and craft processes are often concealed from the public gaze in favour of the finished object. As designers, we perhaps undervalue the work we make during the research and development phase
work by disposing of notes, sketches and models following the
completion of a project. During the process of making work failed protypes are discarded,
digital files constantly over-written with improved versions and creative conversations undocumented so that
all that exists are successful outcomes. <br />

Exhibitions and museums can provide invalueable research into making. Sometimes the most interesting works on display are the sketch books, models, samples and prototypes that have informed the artistic or design outcome. As professional practitioners we can share notes on processes of working and learn from these. Opportunities to display our research and development processes within our commissions and exhibitions have been a rarity but there appears to be a current resurgence in process-driven commissions and exhibitions. In 2018, a London exhibition of props and models used within the making of Wes Anderson's movie 'Isle of Dogs' proved so popular that it had to be extended beyond its' original run and attracted 40,000 visitors.<br />

The block-buster exhibition 'David Bowie Is' (2013-18) included numerous displays of
Bowie's rarely seen sketchbooks, notebooks and paper emphemera compiled during his career. These process works demonstrated the high level of research, creativity, experimentation and refinement that inspired his innovative work.<br />

<br />
Art, design and craft training places an emphasis on the importance of initial research to develop design thinking and technical processes involved in making work. This approach embeds research and development as the first phase within the making process. Whereas art schools value this process, our own experience of professional practice and commissions is that clients and commissioners often downplay, downgrade or entirely remove research and development moving straight to the making of an object, installation or product. Common ideas associated with contemporary technology have led to misunderstandings that a button can be pressed so that work magically appears, ready-made and fully formed that leapfrogs any prior preparation or development. It is noteworthy that artists, such as Marcel Duchamp, famous for innovating the re-purposing of existing objects to transform them into objet art would have devoted long periods to formulating their ideas before arriving at their artistic outcomes.<br />

<br />
Our attempts to share these processes with commissioners, who
are often not artists, designers or craft makers, can sometimes generate an anxious response when work-in-progress is presented. Comments such as, 'Is this what I'm going to get?' when looking at initial rough prototypes has made us sometimes reluctant to share early ideas for fear of misunderstandings arisings. The mid twentieth century designers Charles and Ray Eames
adopted a precautionary working policy of not disclosing their process to clients.These scenarios maybe highlight the inability of the wider public to successfully visualise what a
finished piece of work will be in advance of its' physical
completion. To the outside eye, research and development can seem an intangible and transitory
stage of work that can be minimised without impacting on the finished piece. Personal experiences have reinforced the lack of understanding into the importance of research and development for directing the project outcome. Within our current era of budget cuts requests for free work, unpaid time as well as reduced research and development time on technically ambitious projects have been normalised. The question we have as contemporary practitioners is how to communicate the value of research processes within art, design and craft.</div>

<span style="font-family: inherit;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><span style="font-size: small;">My overall approach to this project is aiming to bring together my craft skills as a theatre designer and craft practitioner to tell the
story of the Bowes Museum on a miniature scale using paper to create a series of scenes. The
original founders of the museum, John and Joséphine Bowes met in Paris
after John Bowes purchased the Théatre des Variétés where </span></span><span style="font-family: inherit;"><span style="font-size: small;">Joséphine
worked as an actress. The Bowes Museum can be viewed as a stage set for
dreams and desires with objects and characters that bring the space to life.</span></span></span><br />

The project does not need to reach a final completed outcome, although there will be an exhibition of the work made, so there is more scope for experimentation than would usually occur on paid commissions. </div>

The Bowes Museum opened in 1892 and was designed by a French architect, <span style="color: #333333; font-size: 12pt; text-align: left;">Jules Pellechet,</span> <span style="color: #333333; text-align: left;">in the ‘petit Louvre’ style. The palatial style of the chateau design was typical of museums in France but it is a strange and unexpected sight in the English rural landscape. </span><span style="text-align: left;">Entering through the iron gates at the museum entrance is</span><span style="color: #333333; text-align: left;"> to feel transported to another time and place. The theatricality of the interior and exterior spaces, the scale of the architecture and the museum collection is a rich source of inspiration. The first encounter with the museum architecture and exterior spaces brought to mind the French film "Last Year at Marienbad" that used the grand settings of a former palace to play with ideas of narrative, space, time and memory to create a dream state.</span><br />

<span style="color: #333333;"></span>A second reference point is the work of Wes Anderson who creates detailed parallel worlds within his films. Extensive research into art and design from different eras are used to create costume and production designs that are a collage composed of different influences. The juxtaposition of contrasting elements creates a heightened sense of reality. In the film "The Grand Budapest Hotel" the palatial architecture of the hotel is remotely situated on top of a hill surrounded by trees with a funicular railway between the village and the hotel.<br />

<span style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;">We are currently completing a Heritage Lottery Funded project 'WW1 Paper Toys' that has involved children and families learning about the First World War through making paper toys published during this era. We first learnt about this little known heritage during a research commission undertaken at the V&A Museum of Childhood in London. The commission primarily involved researching the Robert Freidus Collection of Paper Models to discover techniques and construction toys that we could use within our work with children. During this time we had access to additional resources on paper toys and Imagerie D'Epinal paper models, including some that the French company published during the Great War, that led us to explore paper toys produced as part of war propaganda during the Great War. </span></span><br />

<span style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;">Online research led us to the discovery of a series of American paper toys originally published by the Chicago Ledger that the Villanova University have made available to use under a creative commons license. This collection focused on the vehicles that innovated during the Great War: planes, submarines, armoured cars and battleships. These are a reminder that the First World War was the first fully mechanised war. </span></span></div>

<span style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;">We found that these American paper toy models required greater dexterity to make than the British toys we had located, which tended towards simplified die-cut kits that required minimal skills to construct. However, Toddie's 'Paper Toys and How to Make Them' included some complex models. Paper toys acted as a creative way in which making skills and hand dexterity could be harnessed in children, young people and adults for the needs of the manufacturing industries as part of the war effort. This resonates with contemporary concerns about dwindling levels of hand motor skills in children and young people. We found that families participating in our paper toy making workshops commonly commented that these activities provided positive benefits in improving the skills of their children whilst also learning about a significant historical event. It also brought together different generations actively involved in making the paper toys together as a team.</span></span></div>

<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">We finished 2018 with a retrospective exhibition of work made over a 14 year period including recent costume and film work that Caroline made for a commission at the Museum of Domestic Design and Architecture. The exhibition was accompanied by a very good written summary of the work made by Cabinet of Curiosity Studio, focusing on Caroline's unique practice in textiles, costumes and performance:</span></h4>
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><i>"The work and practice of Caroline Collinge, under the guise of the Cabinet of Curiosity Studio, is exemplary in designing and making as a critical way of exploring the thematics of ideas and techniques. Installations, artefacts, art works, photography, illustration, costumes, performance and film are all taken up equally as both medium and media for testing and experimentation, producing new and intriguing forms which are as insightful and meticulous as they are exuberant and magical.</i></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><i><br /></i></span>
<br />
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><i>Movement, motion and the relationship of costume to the body are key motifs throughout the work, exploring spatiality, aesthetics and the spectacle to enchant and surprise. Several of the works can perhaps be considered to be architectural; constructed and habitable for the performances or installations they were originally conceived for. Underpinning all this is a meticulousness in processing and understanding techniques related to textiles, paper folding, origami forms and katagami stencils. In adopting key symbols or drawing out the dynamics of storytelling, distinctive links are made throughout the works displayed here.</i></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><i><br /></i></span>
<br />
<i><span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Taken together as a body of work the exhibits displayed in Anatomica remind us of the strength in seemingly ephemeral forms. It also confirms the explorative potential of how materials and techniques inhabit a world now seemingly in thrall to the digitised screen. Yet the magic of human touch in creating these works, mediated through the power of thinking through making, continues to enthral, engage and </span><span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">entice in a way digitisation can only be a poor imitator of. Anatomica celebrates these and is an indicator of what yet may be achieved."</span></i><br />

<br />
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Hopefully 2019 will offer more opportunities and commissions where we can develop our practice further. </span><br />

Throughout 2018 we will be leading a Heritage Lottery Funded Project in Medway looking at a unique aspect of life on the Home Front during the First World War: children's toys made during this era. The Centenary is a chance to understand the war better, uncover its stories and explore what it means to us today. The World War 1 Paper Toys project will look at and consider the cultural heritage of Medway through paper toy models produced between 1914-1918. We are very excited at the opportunity to involve children and families in learning about this significant historical event through making toys that were originally made for and by children 100 years ago.<br />
Upcoming activities include:<br />
