21 artists: transformation

David Adjei, founder of Cognition, was invited to take part in the London: Blackfriars series of the global project 21 Artists. This art project features 21 artists from diverse backgrounds and disciplines; it implements artistic interventions in alternative spaces to celebrate the creative process, collaborate and explore ways that artists, communities and visionaries can work together to revitalise communities and under-utilised spaces. The artwork produced for each project is underpinned by a common theme, this one being transformation and, after thorough research, he developed ‘The Stratford Infection’ project.

He investigated the transformation of Stratford area leading to the London 2012 Olympics and constructed an interpretation with an interactive video projection experience and a conceptual psychical model.
