Essential to our company is the fact that we are both practicing artists in our own right and engagement and collaboration with other artists is important as it informs our practice. One of our favorite genres is artists documentaries - as artists ourselves, we understand and appreciate process and development as well as outcomes. Project Examples
Transformations, Arts in Sandwell	Transformations was an arts project, which took part in summer 2002 at 12 venues across Sandwell. Young people were invited to collaborate with artists to transform spaces, places and people. The video visits all of the venues and shows preparation, process and outcomes. Participants, artists and organisers all comment and discuss their transformations.
