Notice Information

Notice Title

Hair: Untold Stories Design and Build Services

Notice Description

We are seeking an experienced design contractor to design and build the 3D aspects of the touring exhibition and creative direction of the 2D, and provide a title treatment, working closely with the project team who will lead on content, interpretation and provide 2D design artworking. We seek the exhibition to be an example of best practice in sustainable production and touring. We have a low production budget and require a designer with a flexible approach who is happy to make use of existing kit etc. (for example we have not budgeted for any new display cases. The Horniman plans to print the majority of graphics in house on our large format printer and Weston Park will outsource the graphics printing at their own expense). The exhibition is aimed at the below target audiences (using the Horniman bespoke segmentation system) and their equivalent at all three venues, principally: * Active Achievers (a younger family audience from a range of ethnic backgrounds. They like variety and being hands-on.) * Social Sharers (a young, family groups who love to have fun and socialise, enjoying relaxed social spaces and enjoyable experiences.) And secondary audiences * Cultural Enthusiasts (confident attendees of museums, with the time and inclination to pursue their passion for culture.) * Self-Improvers (independent adults focused on their own health and wellbeing, and seeking personal development and reflection.) The exhibition will explore three key themes: * Hair as Fibre/Material the properties of hair and its potential as a renewable resource and the amazing things that are made from hair * Hair Play/Hair Care - How we invest in and care for both our own and each other's hair. * Relational Hair (Name TBC) Exploring the potency, politics and meaning of hair from different cultural/temporal contexts, including sacred hair and wigs. There will also be a layer about the hair trade today and in the past - demonstrating global connections and conditions of labour and enabling visitors to trace the trajectories of products Please see Interpretation Plan (Appendix 1 - note Appendices will only be sent to designers to register their interest via cdiez-finch@horniman.ac.uk) for full details. Tenders must be received by 5pm on the 7th December. Submissions should be made electronically to Cressida Diez-Finch (cdiez-finch@horniman.ac.uk) no hard copy documents are expected. Documents may be sent in MS Word or PDF format. Receipt of submissions will be acknowledged by email. If you are planning on tendering please notify Cressida by email so that you can be sent the appendices mentioned here and updated on any clarifications. Clarifications may be asked by email to her by the 20th November, answers will be collated and replies sent by the 26th . We are not able to accommodate site visits.
