Collective Encounters commissioned 10 new works by emerging artists. The commissions formed part of their Above & Beyond project, and responded to themes of “community power” and “community action”.
Creative responses took a variety of forms from illustration, poetry, short films and music.
Dora Colquhoun and Jonathan McGuire created a collaborative music piece exploring The Overview Effect; a theory used to describe the awe inspired feeling astronauts experience when viewing the Earth from Space.
