All 40 projects have now been confirmed, and the countdown to create the work is well and truly on. Over the next 5 months the artists involved will be thinking, sketching, experimenting, making, doing and everything in between to come up with their final piece for the exhibition in January.
We’ll see installations, sculptures, moving image, books, posters and lots more besides before we start to fill the gallery at the beginning of 2010. From now on, this blog will document how all of the contributors are getting on, giving you a behind the scenes look at how things are coming together for the grand unveiling.
If you’d like to know more about the project, please drop us an e-mail on [email protected] and you can follow us on Twitter here.

Little update from Ben at BCMH to let us know that Luke from Smith&Wightman will also be getting in on their project (William Smith was already involved). What a nice excuse to post up a bit more of their fantastic work…

Welcome to the rosta of artists exhibiting in January BCMH (Bravo Charlie Mike Hotel) and William Smith from design company Smith & Wightman.
Their proposal is called ‘One of one off’ and explained in their own words…
“Inevitably much of the work that both of our practices’ make is made in multiples. This common requirement gives us the opportunity to re-approach use of materials and methods of production in order to make new things, often steering the final outcome and bending it into shape. Our collaboration will look to examine the richness of the multiple through a series of machines and experiments in an attempt make a one off for the exhibition.”
Sounding special already.
