Highbridge

Sami Green is a teacher, mentor, and workshop facilitator in Bristol and North Somerset. She completed a Fine Art BA at University Centre Somerset with Honours in 2021. Before this, Sami worked for 15 years creating, coordinating and building imaginative decorative environments for events. Wedding magazines and blogs across the world featured her styled photoshoots. Installation commissions include Plimsoll Productions, Tokyo World and Awesome Events. In May 2021, her degree artworks won a window display space and funding at Weston-Super-Shop Windows, a community project organised by Weston Arts Space. In 2022 her community-centred artwork Flutter II for St. John’s Church, Highbridge, won a new artist bursary from Somerset Art Works. Sami continues to develop The Transformation Project, curating responses through artist collaboration for SAW Festival in September 2022. Sami used her degree studies as an opportunity to develop ideas about perception and experience within critical spatial practice. A development from events experience. Her July 2021 exhibition, Emergentism, experimented with the sensory and intellectual processes that help us understand the world around us. Taking inspiration from nature, her unusual, abstract, material, and process-driven forms offered participants immersive, light and sound experiences through colour and frequency. In 2022, ideas led by research into art education practices and the benefits of art and culture to the wellbeing of a community have become central to development. Sami has worked with the community to develop a socially engaged artwork, exploring the collective potential and the possibilities in collaboration. She is working with cross-disciplinary performers and makers to promote a four-dimensional approach to experience through sculptural installation, sound, performance, and workshops. Exploring the multi-sensory in terms of perception and experience formed the backbone of recent experimentation. My research paper into the practices of Olafur Eliasson underpins these ideas,

Bristol

We are a Community Interest Company and we work across Bristol, South Gloucestershire, B&NES, North Somerset and Wiltshire. We work with children and young people aged between 6 and 25, identifying where the gaps in support exist. We work collaboratively with children, young people, families, professional agencies, Local Authorities, Schools, Voluntary Sector Organisations and charitable trusts/foundations to ensure that we meet the needs of our communities’ most vulnerable children and young people. Building on the strengths, abilities and talents of children and young people, our specialist team ensures that no child or young person is left without help, and that children and young people are encouraged and supported to develop their own resilience, skills to overcome any barriers that prevent them from engaging with their education, their families and in their community. Learning Partnership West (LPW) exists to inspire future aspiration and ensure that no child or young person is left without help. Through play work, youth work and the provision of alternative education our relentless care and personalised approaches are underpinned by trauma-recovery. We support all children and young people between the ages of 6-25 to build on their strengths, abilities and talents; overcome barriers to engagement and education; and to develop their own resilience and capability, because we believe every child and young person can reach their potential.
