Like I Care
The RSC x Warwickshire Young Carers x The Barbican- 2022
A co-produced project with The RSC and Warwickshire Young Carers inspired by the theme of care seen in The RSC’s upcoming production of My Neighbour Totoro at the Barbican. Creating two installation pieces – one at the Barbican, one in Stratford – members of the public can listen to the stories of the young carer participants who have shaped the artworks with their stories and lived experiences.
The layered wooden installation was created in collaboration with Birmingham based wood fabricators Groove.
“Pickle have been a delight to work with, taking on the spirit of co-created work with empathy and a unique style that has brought the stories of our young carer participants to life in an authentic, joyful way. This socially engaged project has served as a blueprint for how the organisation intends to work with people’s stories at its heart;’
