PARK & RIDE

About Michael Pinsky

Michael is the lead artist for a series of Park & Ride schemes proposed on the periphery of Chelmsford and Colchester towns as a means of reducing town centre congestion and improving accessibility and sustainability.

Michael graduated from the Royal College of Art and is a Senior Lecturer at East London University. He received an Art for Architecture award from the Royal Society of Arts and his exhibition Pontis was short listed for the prestigious Gulbenkian Museums Award.

Michael takes on the combined roles of urban planner, activist, researcher, resident and artist. Using mediums of video, performance, mapping and programming, Michael responds site-specifically to physical and sociological space.

One of his recent projects includes Transparent Room, an Arts Council England funded installation which toured venues including Leeds City Art Gallery, Watershed and the Contemporary Art Forum, Canada.
