What would YOU do with this blank wall?Have your say and spark debate. If you’re a street artist, aged 11-25, and would like to paint this space as a part of the Counted project, please send us your ideas.
Here’s the brief...
Day-to-day, hour-by-hour, do decisions made by others have an impact on your life? What does politics mean to you? Is it just about the government, or is it the small things that affect your everyday life – in class, on the street, at work, on the bus, at home? Is it something you care about? What should people care about?
BackgroundThe wall will be part of a series of projects…
- Counted, a timely documentary-play shedding light on why so many people don’t vote. At County Hall, on the south bank of the Thames opposite the Houses of Parliament, from 15 April-22 May.
- Do you feel Counted? a weekend of performance and debate for 11-25 year olds at
the Roundhouse, 17/18 April.
- Online activity instigating debate and interaction.
