I am S.o.S – Live Spray Painting Art

September 18, 2018 //  by Lynn Tulip//  Leave a Comment

Saturday / 10-4:30pm / High Street

Sarah Gillings is S.o.S, an award-winning multimedia and street artist.

From Disney designer to Street Artist.

S.o.S has been a footwear designer, an advertising agency director and many other creative roles in her life. Her journey into public Arts interactions began humbly hosting an Artists’ Open house, staging public art exhibitions, promoting other artists and finally becoming a professional artist in her own right.  Her style of work in the street brings together ideas of branding, marketing, icons and advertisement into her artwork, which often portray women as the central element in the composition. Her Cellograff* interventions also include British wildlife in unexpected settings and this is the type of work that she will be creating for Lindfield’s festival.

*Cellograff is a technique where cellophane is stretched between any available support making paint-ready surfaces.  This provides a freedom to create murals in a variety of new locations without the restriction of needing a wall.  The translucent nature of the plastic adds a fascinating layer of visual complexity to the mural.  S.o.S has been using this technique for the last year.

In 2015 S.o.S was awarded a First Class Honours for a Master of Arts program in Inclusive Arts Practice (IAP).  IAP is using art practice for positive social change.

S.o.S won 2 awards in 2015, for a public art design & commission at the Brighthelm Centre and the 2015 BrightSpark Award for innovation and original ideas for inclusive spray-paint workshops. In 2016, S.o.S was offered a place and funding at The School for Social Entrepreneurs to developer spray painting charity.

In 2017 S.o.S founded the UK’s first dedicated spray-painting charity.  Raising funds to provide Therapeutic Arts for those disengaged from society.

Playground of Illusions

September 17, 2018 //  by Lynn Tulip//  Leave a Comment

Saturday / 9-5pm / The Common

Saturday 22nd September will see an incredible site on Lindfield Common. Not only will the famous Pink Literary Tent be prominent on The Common but there will also be some amazing illusions to be explored.

The Playground of Illusions​ is a collection of 8 ‘giant toys’ that each contain a visual or auditory illusion. The toys are placed in an area that the audience are free to wander round and explore. Each illusion is self-sufficient and works brilliantly on its own, together they make an unforgettable and fascinating experience that is inspirational, educational and (most importantly) awesome FUN!

The design of the illusions is inspired by steampunk and a sense of playful invention –with levers to pull and wheels to turn, buttons to push and pedals to pedal. Vintage industrial machines are re-used to make the quirky gadgets, creating an intriguing visual spectacle that will draw visitors in and ignite their imaginations.

Enter the intriguing and enthralling Playground of Illusions, a new area full of mystery and trickery from Travelling Light Circus – see the world in a new light in this hypnotic fusion of science and art. Explore and play together in a mysterious collection of giant experiences that each contain an illusion and make incredible things happen.

Look out for “The Gravity Vortex Floor”, “The Impossible Shrinking Mushroom”, “The Uttlerly Convincing Mirage” and “The Forever Speeding Up Rhythm”. Then be mesmerised by the magical, mechanical movements of the hypnotic Pendulum Wave Machine.

Come and play with these intriguing and enchanting interactive toys – visual and auditory illusions that reveal the unexpected, the unimaginable and sometimes the unexplained !

Discover incredible wonders that have to be seen (or heard) to be believed.
