The idea was to produce a piece of work(over a five hour period) that would give voice to and reflect upon the Youth Culture of Bray, the issue of illicit drug use, its connection to the location and the amenities for young people.

The Commission was divided into two parts. One focused on producing a collaborative Art-Work with a group of young people drawn from all over Bray. The other was a Visual Response Area where participants at the conference could express any ideas or feelings in relation to the above on paper using a variety of processes.

The work resulting from these two process was then edited into slide slows and together to form a final piece for use by the Bray Youth Service's Drugs Officer to catalyse dialogue with the groups she engages with.

Many thanks to Susana Nunez-Rubio for her openness and support for the project and to Artist Nina Tanis for her assistance in leading the Visual Response Area.
