What makes a house? What makes a home?
How do we make a community?
The Building Project, by Freshwest, invited people to participate in the making of their own miniaturised settlement in which to experiment, play and debate.
Within the walls of Oriel Myrddin gallery, participants used a simple fabrication process to make small plaster
“houses” that contributed to the creation of an intriguing model settlement which developed and grow in-situ over a 13 week period.
During this time creatives and artists from diverse disciplines intervened in the settlement to re-interpret its material properties and its meaning.
