Pepper Project
The Pepper Project 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.
So far this comprises of a collection of texts, artworks and workshops created by artist Hannah Rollason.

The Journey as a Process
Within making this work I realised that while the physical pepper is important the mould holds symbolic weight; It forms and shapes the material much like art education shapes our understanding of art and the world we live in.
