Multi-story 2003-05

Multi-story began as a series of participatory workshops with Asylum Seeker and Refugees in 2003. Based in Red Road Housing Estate, Glasgow, the project resulted in a touring exhibition in 2004 and project website.

The project offered introductions to lens-based media, creative writing and music, from within the Community Resource on the 28th floor of the YMCA Central Branch. Artists worked with over 100 people over an 18 month period. Multi-story helped launched the Glasgow hip-hop band 4D, collaborated with artists from Virtual Migrants, produced two short films screened at Document 2 International Human Rights Film Festival and in 2006 received an Engage Scotland Arts and Education Award.

About Street Level Photoworks

Street Level supports new artistic practices in photography and media art by both emerging and established artists locally and internationally. Recognised for its integrated practice, the organisation has an engaged programme of outreach projects and education services for community groups and schools, open access facilities for artists and members, and training courses for the public.

Street Level is part of Trongate 103, a major visual arts resource for the city of Glasgow. The building, based in the heart of Glasgow’s Merchant City, will house galleries, workshops, artists studios and production spaces supporting the creation of art in a wide variety of media including printmaking, photography, digital media, film, video, kinetic sculpture, painting and ceramics. The project is being delivered in a partnership between Glasgow City Council and eight Merchant City based visual arts organisations – Street Level Photoworks, Glasgow Print Studio, Project Ability, Transmission Gallery, Sharmanka Kinetic Theatre, Glasgow Media Access Centre, Glasgow Independent Studios and The Russian Cultural Centre.
