Unwritten Handbook: Paul Maheke

About

Paul Maheke was the lead artist on the 2015 Moving Up commission at Gateway Academy in Westminster, North London. Working alongside dancer Benny Ord, filmmaker Filip Tulak, and Year 6 pupils and teachers, Paul’s project took the form of a series of performative and discursive workshops designed to hold the space for Year 6 pupils to reflect on and share thoughts about their transition from Primary to Secondary school.  A resource following Paul’s residency is currently in the final stages of production to be launched in the 2016-17 academic year.Unwritten Handbook is a seasonal series of conversations with artists commissioned through Education and Projects at the Serpentine Galleries. Recent Artist Talks include: Stephanie Cubbin, Chris Jones and Janna Graham, Bedfellows, Anton Kats, Frances Rifkin, Invisible Spaces of Parenthood, Sam Curtis and Mohamad Hafeda.
