Mid Term Review, Health and Safety Form

Norwich University of the Arts


Student guidance note for the displaying of work

1.   Introduction

It is important that you plan for the installation of your work early in your planning phase.

It is necessary for the Estates/Health & Safety team to understand what you wish to do so that we can advise how this can be done safely and to assist you in this part of your work; in order to avoid disappointment or delay.

Please work through the following questions, discuss this with your tutor and consult with us.
2.   Brief description of what you intend to do:

My hope is that this through this exhibition is that I will show, without being too obvious, the link to teaching textiles and how this has affected my own practice. I intend to layout my exhibition using a few different pieces; a sculpture decoupage with the children’s work measuring about two metre in length and a metre in height, a few lesson plans and a sample of my own practice, a piece of fabric displayed on the wall behind the sculpture, measuring about 1.5m squared with the lesson plans down either side, all attached to the wall with tacks. The sculpture will stand on a plinth, approximately one metre in height and length, against the wall with two lines of lesson plans down each side and my work in the centre. This exhibition will be vibrant and colourful to reflect art in schools and should be 2.5m in width.
