Art Project course gallery No. 11
Art Project: On your bike…
This week’s brief coincided with World Bicycle Day which falls annually on June 3. Established in 2019, it’s a day to celebrate the benefits of bike-riding with organisers using the occasion to highlight the benefits of riding a bike as well as promote the need to improve cycle paths, signage and rider safety. In light of the ongoing pandemic, the bike has also become a popular mode of transport for people when taking their daily exercise as well as avoiding public transport.
Here’s a selection of artwork and prepatory studies made by some of the Art Project course artists taking part in the project.
Look out for another gallery of work coming soon…
