 Artracks EK 2003
Marina is a film and sound projection work by Peter
Fillingham. It was launched on Ramsgate Cliffs at approximately
20:00 on Friday 28 March 2003. It was then presented in interior
East Kent locations during April and May 2003.
Marina; it might be nice to have a funfair here, near the beach from time to time. Some good old songs and tunes with sexy new numbers: loud and distracting, near the beach.
Marina; both conceived and launched in Ramsgate. Shot in Kent and Yorkshire. It will tour throughout East Kent, joyously made in England.
Keep the clowns safe, we have them on film.
 This project is supported by 'Transforming your Space', a scheme under the New Opportunities Fund fairshare initiative to promote community investment in disadvantaged areas.

2006 by Adam Chodzko is a slide projection
work which was shown throughout East Kent venues during
April through September 2003.
As though a science fiction, an event is set in the year 2006. Through 81 projected images, a group of Kurdish asylum seekers are seen to study, rearrange and store 10 years of archive material from Cubitt (a London gallery and studios) in Margate, Kent. The Kurds - a people uprooted from their homeland - evaluate a history displaced from its source. Questions of where we choose to look, where we expect to find information and who we expect to be caring for that knowledge are all raised by cell-a 2006.

Artracks EK 2004
Matthew Arnatt, a London based artist and writer has received the publication
commission documenting the previous Artracks EK projects. This will take the
form of an illustrated book that functions as an original work, a record of the
commissioning process and as a textual and photographic record of the successful
artists' implemented works.
Jeremy Millar, artist, curator and writer has been awarded the commission for
a permanent work. All Chess Players are Artists references Marcel Duchamp's participation
as a member of the French team during the Chess Olympiad held in Folkestone 1933.
Millar proposes to site up to eight oak tables and sixteen benches below the
Leas Cliff Hall, Folkestone which was the site of the Olympiad. Each table will
be inset with three steel plates engraved with the closing moves and the chess
notations of each game played by Duchamp. The work will be installed during Spring
2005.
