Using visits to Camden Art Centre as a starting point for new ideas, artists Abu Hasnat, Kathleen Sweet, Patrick Moses, Philippa Marshall and Thomas Owen from Action Space were invited to respond to the spatial, visual and architectural experience as well as Observation Point by Zoe Leonard. Source material and interactions were taken back to the Action Space studio and used as a catalyst for new directions in practice.
The project culminated in an exhibition in Camden Art Centre’s Artists’ Studio from 24 – 29 July 2012.
