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.

We’re getting very close to our final full line-up now and if the remaining ones have as much potential to shine as this one we’ll be very happy chaps.
In their own words product designer Jorre Van Ast from OK Studio and graphic designer Damien Poulain are going to “work on a joint idea we had meanwhile drinking tea at Jorre’s place. Jorre found a book on japanese cut-outs that was, for many years, hiding in his bookshelves. We both were really excited about this book and are sure that this is a good starting point for our collaborative project. Green tea and 3D craziness.”
Let the madness begin.
