Working through a residency format, the artists and designers will work with children and young people, supported by specialist Age Appropriate Care and Play staff, at Yorkhill Children’s Hospital to develop graphics which will be applied a range of identified spaces in the New Children’s Hospital that forms part of the New South Glasgow Hospitals project.
The individuals/teams will agree a programme of work in Yorkhill over 2012-2013 and deliver the final graphics into the new hospital in 2014. This is a vital element of the Working Well, People and Spaces Therapeutic Design and Art Strategy for the New South Glasgow Hospitals.
