About Eileen Adams: Agent of Change
Agent of Change showed how revolutionary initiatives have prompted change in art, design and environmental education.
Visual education has taken art out of the gallery into school grounds and onto the street. Collaborations between pupils, teachers, architects, planners and artists have created new learning opportunities. You can learn to draw, but you can also draw to learn!
Agent of Change – along with Adams' latest book, Visual Literacy, published in autumn 2015 by the Loughborough Design Press – was exhibited in the National Arts Education Archive (NAEA) at YSP in 2015.

Roger Hiorns: Seizure
In 2008 Roger Hiorns transformed an empty council flat in Southwark, London into Seizure, a sparkling blue world of copper sulphate crystals. The work was created using 75,000 litres of liquid copper sulphate, which was pumped into the former dwelling to create a strangely beautiful and somewhat menacing crystalline growth on the walls, floor, ceiling and even the bath of the abandoned flat. - News
