TOM POPE EXHIBITION

Meeting tom pope was inspiring, he was extremely creative in everything he did. Through everything he was doing, you could see he was trying to think of new ideas to do. The main piece of Tom’s work that I found interesting was the film. This was presented on a projector down in the ‘dungeon’. Baring in mind the location of the exhibition was in the old police station, so being there was interesting in itself. Tom’s film was about his adventure that he had where he travelled across Jersey pushing a fisherman’s boat that he had bought locally. His Journey started in grey, and finished out at St Ouen’s bay with a beautiful sunset. Tom had a group of constantly changing people who helped him push the boat to the other side of the island. Alongside this group of helpers, Tom organised for some local musicians to come and play along side him as entertainment. He also encouraged the public to come and take part.
