In 2019 Project Art Works held our exhibition llluminating the Wilderness at Tate Liverpool as part of the Explorers Project. Along side a new film, the space was split into an exhibition and workshop space demonstrating our supported studio practice. An evolving installation of artwork made in collaboration with neurodiverse people and groups from Social Care organisations across Merseyside included Natural Breaks, Mencap Sefton, Options for Supported Living, Blue Room, and Thingwall Resource Centre hung in the space.

In February 2024 Project Art Works held a residency in our newly refurbished Trinity Hall. The residency was a commission by Tate Modern as part of Expressionists: Kandinsky, Münter and The Blue Rider. To connect artists and studio workshops to the works of Expressionists: Kandinsky, Münter and The Blue Rider we set-up an environmental installation at our studio base in Hastings, using colour fields of blue, white and black, projections of paintings and environmental images we felt might stimulate imagination and connection to the works of Der Blaue Reiter.
