I am currently working on The Pepper Project, which de-constructs, re-imagines and abstracts the pepper both physically and conceptually, exploring the open-ended process of learning and creativity. The pepper has been chosen as an emblem for this project, as during Primary and Secondary school, the pepper is often used as a subject within Art and Design classes, becoming an introduction to both drawing and creativity. These early experiences of drawing the pepper are an integral part to the young person’s understanding of art, the level of their initial success in drawing it dictating whether they feel they are ‘good’ or ‘bad’ at art, which contributes to whether they continue with the subject.
