Painting Connections was supported by a Grand Challenge of Sustainable Cities Small Grant. The project worked with Creative Wick and Affordable Wick to explore and showcase the Sharing Economy in Hackney Wick and Fish Island (HWFI), East London. The research group brought together visualisation and outreach from CASA, models of prosperity from the Institute for Global Prosperity, and systemic approaches to understanding microeconomies from the Institute of Sustainable Resources.
Painting Connections received support from the UCL Grand Challenges Sustainable Cities Small Grant scheme and Public and Cultural Engagement in collaboration with the Forum for Future London.
