Walk Out

Abstract

Walk Out is a group exhibition of the research outputs of Media Arts and Photography lecturers made through the activities of the Walking Arts Research group, an inclusive walking group formed to generate research, collaboration, reflection, and practice. The exhibition, comprised of photography, video works, and installation, including a zoetrope, reveals a diverse response to the rural and urban environment experienced during the walks. The title is knowingly political and the manifesto and accompanying exhibition essay acknowledge WARGs activities as a resistance to the increasingly time-compressed and bureaucratised work environment. The group aims, through walking and collaborative practice, to nurture an environment in which creative practice can thrive
