Architect Andy Ramus from AR Design Studio, and artist and lecturer Andrew Carnie, both from Winchester, talked about their practice as they teamed up to make a poetic hanging structure based on ‘opposites’ or ‘differences’ expressed in the phrase ‘like chalk and cheese’.

Drawing Together | CHALK Hub

Cheng-Chu Weng with Dr Sunil Manghani

Drawing Together brought people together in a shared act of drawing, ‘to draw ourselves together, if only fleetingly; just as our own shadows are mere fleeting images of ourselves. This act of drawing upon the ‘ground’ of the city itself in which we live is intended to mark a temporary reflection of ourselves as individuals and as a community’

The event took pace on 17 October at Winchester Discovery Centre
