Art and sport unites
A project involving artists and Olympic hopefuls from Essex has been unveiled at Colchester United’s football ground.
The exhibition, called Journey to the Podium consists of paintings, animations, photography, film and sound.
The art reflects the personalities of the athletes and their own journeys to the podium. It will be displayed at the stadium until November, when it will be moved to Gibberd Gallery in Harlow.
The project is part of the Team Essex Ambassadors scheme which the Essex County Council is backing. They created a bried to create artworks that reflected the personalities of the athletes and the sports.
