Colour + chemistry
Sherborne House, Dorset (2005/6)
With an emphasis on latest colour technology, the Colour+Chemistry project, developed and presented by Sherborne House in conjunciton with ArtsLink and 4 science, provided an integrated visual arts, education and exhibition programme.
Franziska Schenk became involved when she successfully secured a place on their limited access 'Colour Lab' symposium (3 Nov 05). This, in turn, led to the artist being selected to deliver a workshop on 'Colour-shift Pigments and Camouflage' to BND Fine Art students at Yeovil College (Feb 06); and also inclusion in 'Vibrant 2' at Sherbourne House Gallery. The latter, a group show featuring Schenk's diptych 'Sea Change', also included work by four similarly selected artists and the outcome of their respective workshops.
