dc.description This is a small sample of the 1049 ‘1000 Colours Blue’ images that were painted on canvas by school pupils during workshops conducted as part of the AHRC-funded 'Future Memory in Place' project. Each pupil attempted to replicate a shade of blue from the Swansea waterfront. Another item (linked, above) provides all of the 1049 Blues grouped in ZIP files of 100. These images were later used in a filmic and music work of the same name, performed live in Castle Square (Swansea, 1 October 2011) as part of the project’s finale. This project united visual art and ancient history through contemporary landscape painting and research on migration in the ancient world, archaeology, manuscripts, objects, journeys, uncharted maps and music. It was enacted through school workshops and community gatherings around Swansea, and gave over 2,500 school pupils the opportunity to learn about how people relate to the place where they live or have lived, and how memories and the experience of migration can be expressed in art.
