DESTRUCTION / CARE
Guttersnipe presents: destruction/care, a micro-exhibition exploring rural youth frustration and community custodianship at Staveley bus shelter and loos.
14th August - 22nd September.
destruction / care is an exhibition of social forces and creative actions in Staveley, running for 6 weeks in the Abbey bus shelter.
We want to share with all users of the popular 555 bus route just how much this village community cares. The exhibition will raise awareness of how we can contribute our time, resources, creativity or attention to issues we face together as neighbours.
Working with Gowan Stop&Go, Guttersnipe have been recording recent damage to the toilets, as well as the dedicated work of volunteers to mend, clean and keep these important facilities in working order.
We wonder: what drives people to be destructive? How can we be creative when we want to destroy? Is destruction creative? And how can we take better care of our surroundings?
