FAME: Andy Warhol in AlUla

I developed mobile content and a workshop to accompany FAME, the first exhibition of Andy Warhol’s work in Saudi Arabia. I was part of the team at KCA London and we worked with the Andy Warhol Museum in Pittsburgh to develop workshop and digital resources. The workshop introduced schools and families to Pop Art and Andy Warhol before a practical session in which they had the opportunity to create Pop Art supermarket shelves. As a team, we developed the workshop concept and messaging before running a trial workshop to test and refine the techniques we proposed. I wrote the workshop script, accompanying presentation and workshop handbook.

Mobile content was accessed via QR codes within the exhibition and provided an extra layer of interpretation for teenagers, posing evocative questions and providing activities to connect the work of Warhol with today’s celebrity and social media culture. We developed the content concepts as a team and I wrote script drafts, with the live version built in collaboration with a digital developer.
