Bring Art Go: Creative Exchange in London



Brick Lane is a catwalk of fashion, multiculturality and bohemian life for Londoners and tourists, a window on the artistry seething in the East End. For this reason it has been chosen as the location of an exhibition showcasing the work of 12 Taiwanese creatives for the first time in London.

Their skills belong to Illustration, Fashion, Jewellery, Embroidery, Handcraft, Product Design and Interior Design and they are here to know us, make themselves known and get inspired. The name of the pop-up event is Bring Art Go, embodying the concepts of origins, skills and sharing. It takes place in Brick Lane on Sunday 17 June from 11am until 5pm at the Sunday UpMarket.

This exhibition is part of a 13 days project in collaboration with the London Printworks Trust set up by CampoBag, a company based in Taipei. During this journey the Asian artists will collaborate with 12 English artists to share views on identity, imagination and creative process and shape new products.

The experience develops from Friday 15 June until Wednesday 27 June. The grand finale is a pop-up catwalk on Sunday 24 June in Brixton, other artistic hub in London, summing up the achievements of the designers. The purpose of this exchange is to create a space of multicultural and interartistic inspiration and improve oneself through extremely different approaches derived from a different cultural background, in contrast with the current alienating financial globalization.

The mission of CampoBag is:

Bring art to people

Make everyone’s life better

Add value to business in art.
