As part of an exciting pilot programme, Level Up, that supports young Disabled adults with hands-on work experience, creative industry insight and mentoring, Otis worked on his Word Collision Project. The Level Up programme helps bridge the gap between education and employment, giving students like Otis the skills, confidence and connections within the creative industries.
For his project, Otis created a series of artworks made into postcards, called The Word Collision Project. Orpheus helped him send them far and wide-across cities, countries and continents! Each time someone received a postcard, they were invited to take a picture, a shot, a photo of it in their location and send the digital image back to us at Orpheus.
‘How far will I go team!’ Otis asked.
He went Global!! From London to Berlin, India to Australia and even Antarctica.
From London to Paris to Brazil to Anarctica
