Ben Judd The Origin

''How does the onboard group engage with their local environment and how does this impact on how they function as a community? Students from MA Sustainable Design at Kingston School of Art and Mill Street Residents’ Association will take us on a journey along the tributary Hogsmill River, which runs from Stanley Picker Gallery to the Thames where the boat will be located. On this journey we will engage with the Hogsmill, a point of origin of the Thames, as well as with the local landscape, finding things of interest along the way. Using this page and #TheOriginKingston on social media, they will reflect on how these ideas of locality can be explored on the boat and ultimately develop aspects of the onboard community, informing how the boat will be used in autumn 2020.''
