The artist - architects collective Plattformer was founded by Carl
Richardson, Tim Mitchell and Nina Scholz.
Plattformer aims to use the city as a
place where workshops, play and intervention can become a catalyst for
innovative ways to address our daily lives and challenge our habitual
routines.
The
Collective’s work is set somewhere between urbanism, public art and
social interaction. We often work in areas and places that are in
transition. In our projects we strongly believe in hands on
participation, enhancing communication and exchange between people of
different cultural backgrounds, different ages and abilities. Our
temporary and permanent installations and built structures in the public
realm aim to provide opportunities for
people to get together and actively use their local environment, by
creating sites of dialogue, interaction and play.
As a not-for-profit organisation of
artists, architects and designer makers we've been working together on
projects in the public realm since 2004.
In previous projects we've
worked with: The London Borough
Councils of Hackney and Islington, London
Fields Estate, Cornwallis Square Youth Centre, Mary Magdalene Academy,
Breeze Landscape Architects, Remapp Landscape Architects
St Lukes Primary School, Colvestone Primary School, Holy Trinity Primary
School, The Building Exploratory, Tate Modern, Mlyn na Woli Partnership,
University of Warsaw - Institute of Polish Culture, Stowarzyszenie
Aktywności Społeczno-Artystycznej „Nie Po Drodze", Suwalski Klub Seniora,
Fundacji Strefa WolnoSłowa,
ROD Obrońców Pokoju, Berlin Senat(DE)
and 'the general public'.
For Sonicpong we
are collaborating with musician and sound artist James Dunn. For Pingponginthecity we've
been
collaborating with Bristol based designer maker Tim Greaves.
Many thanks to Mark Chapman of
