Brigitte Parusel is an artist, art educator and the co-founder
of Capture Art and Creative Projects.
In her art practice she specializes in large-scale installations
that are based on geometry, science, architecture and space. The
installations are mainly made from flexible metal systems which
allow an open-ended working process in which she explores creativity
and resourcefulness of materials and self. A hands-on approach and
the development of engineering solutions to technical challenges
are an inspirational aspect in her sculptural practice. Her work
has been on show in London at APT Gallery, Whitechapel, Deptford
X Arts Festival, Chelsea Physic Gardens and The Commonwealth Institute.
As art educator and the co-founder of Capture Art and Creative
Projects she has considerable experience in the development, management
and running of a range of art education programmes, the organization
of artist-led projects and the curation of exhibitions.
Since setting up Capture Art and Creative Projects in 2005 she
has become an accredited Edward De Bono creative thinking skills
consultant for education in 2006. She developed and delivered a
successful art and creative thinking skills progamme called Making
Thinking Matter (MTM) for early years and primary education which
is funded by Arts Council England and the National Lottery.
