Architecture Week

In 2007...

To celebrate Architecture Week MADE ran a series of events:
 
MADE invited members of the public to help make an alternative visitor map about their town. Making Sense of Places is based on the methodology of artist Simon Whitehead, who develops time-based work centred on the practices of walking and journeying. Walks took place in 4 towns across the region and were later developed into publications. See www.makingsenseofplaces.co.uk for further information.
 
Birmingham based Artist Michelle Lord, influenced by a short story 'the Immortal' by Jorges Luis Borges created an exhibition of 'other-worldly' images which were displayed at MADE's Fazeley Street offices throughout architecture week.
 
Artist/Architect Practice Liminal returned to Birmingham to discuss their soundwalk created around the Warwick bar area.

Icknield Port Loop 

MADE was invited by ISIS Waterside regeneration to work with Ubanistix to engage and consult with Ladywood community and stakeholders as part of the masterplanning process for the regeneration of the site. MADE proposed a series of four artists commissions for IPL based upon the themes of the four elements, Earth, Fire Air and Water. Each artist was commissioned to create a route around the area taking one element and to work with a small group of local people in developing the route.
