The project has been commissioned by Sheffield-based gallery <a href=\"http:\/\/www.blocprojects.co.uk\/\" target=\"_blank\">Bloc Projects<\/a> and features artist <a href=\"http:\/\/benjudd.com\/\" target=\"_blank\">Ben Judd<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Ben Judd is an artist based in London and has been commissioned to produce an offsite project within the city in June 2017. His project will create a temporary, re-usable structure on an island on the River Don. The structure will be based on the geodesic dome, famously reinterpreted by <a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Buckminster_Fuller\" target=\"_blank\">Buckminster Fuller<\/a> and the utopian community of <a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Drop_City\" target=\"_blank\">Drop City<\/a> in America. With an emphasis on reusing found materials from the river, the structure will be designed and constructed with the help of Sheffield-based architectural practice <a href=\"http:\/\/www.studiopolpo.com\/\" target=\"_blank\">Studio Polpo<\/a>. Carefully selected individuals from a diverse range of backgrounds will help construct the dome, and will then inhabit it for one night, eating a communal meal and sleeping there. The realisation of the project (not including planning etc.) will last for one weekend. <\/p>\n<p>The structure will be used as a site for facilitating discussion around the subjects of community and the river. The use of Sheffield\u2019s waterways has been in decline since their industrial heyday and they have been a site of urban neglect; however there is a renewed interest in them as important spaces within the city, and they are now cleaner and abundant in nature. The discussions will consider the importance of community within a large city and will facilitate meaningful exchanges between strangers. The project therefore aims to reconnect people both to each other and to the river. <\/p>\n<p>The project will be carried out under the guidance of the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.the-rsc.co.uk\/\" target=\"_blank\">River Stewardship Company<\/a>, a non-profit organisation dedicated to the regeneration of Sheffield\u2019s waterways, and with the full permission of the Environment Agency. It will also seek guidance from local groups such as <a href=\"https:\/\/en-gb.facebook.com\/kelhaminfo\/\" target=\"_blank\">Kelham Island Community Alliance<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>The event will take place from 9am Saturday 24th June \u2013 5pm Sunday 25th June, on an island next to Drop Dead Clothing, 48 Rutland Road, Sheffield S3 8BD.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.shu.ac.uk\/about-us\/our-people\/staff-profiles\/joanne-lee\" target=\"_blank\">Joanne Lee<\/a> is a senior lecturer in Graphic Design in the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.shu.ac.uk\/research\/specialisms\/cultural-communication-and-computing-research-institute\/research-centres\/art-and-design-research-centre\" target=\"_blank\">Art &amp; Design Research Centre<\/a> (ADRC).
