Art in the Arches: Out of the Blue

Curated by Jacqueline Rutter this project invites Islanders and visitors alike to experience 12 new murals responding to the evocative theme, Out of the Blue.

This year’s line-up includes five commissioned local artists — Ben Robertson, Abi Overland, Rian Hotton, Layla Arthur and Aimée Cast — each creating works inspired by moments of surprise, emotion, and transformation. Alongside them, young people across the Island are making their mark: students from four schools will take part in tailored workshops feeding into six vibrant student-designed murals.

Further collaborations with Ocean Culture Life and CAMHS have supported children and families to express themselves creatively, to create their own collectively made community artwork.
