Bittersweet
Once again joining forces as History by Design, New Meadow Media’s Ben Locker and Barry Lowenhoff created a poignant exhibition on the links between slavery, food and Wales on behalf of the Gateway Gardens Trust. Ben was responsible for researching the material in conjunction with GGT, and then writing it to a visually logical format. Barry Lowenhoff was the creative force behind the exhibition design.
The exhibition was launched to great acclaim in October 2008. Gateway Gardens Trust Chairman Bettina Harden was thrilled with the response it generated:
The Chairman of HLF said he never expected [the exhibition] to be as good, look so great and relate such difficult issues to people’s everyday lives. [Dr] Chris Evans LOVED it and is really looking forward to having it at the University of Glamorgan Library over the winter… we will feature in the Big Issue with some of our ex-homeless guests on the visit from Dragon Arts — and their response was so enthusiastic. Finally, the Leader of the Vale of Glamorgan Council wants to get it on the Vale’s website, so tremendously positive all round.
Ben and Barry are looking forward to working with the Gateway Gardens Trust over the course of the Bittersweet project, and are already thinking about how best to do its final exhibition.
