email to Walker Art Gallery

Hello
My Name is Sarah Broadfoot (Broady) and I’m studying Graphic Arts at Liverpool John Moores University. I’ve been assigned a project, were I have to re-create an object in the style of a chosen artist. I will be researching Banksy who specialises in Graffiti and installations. The object I have been designated is a light bulb. Part of the project is to really get into the mind of the artist and try to envision the world around me in the way that he would, this explains my abbreviated name (for the duration of the project also).
I’ve discovered that it’s quite difficult to re-create my object legally as he is renowned for putting work up in galleries without their permission and videoing unknowing people looking at the work, as well as graffiti which is completely out of the question. I have an idea for how I will overcome the graffiti obstacle although I was hoping that The Walker Art Gallery may be able to co-operate with me on my instillation idea.
I have done a painting of a light bulb in a contemporary style which I would like to be able to put up in the modern art section of The Walker Art Gallery. I do not wish for it to be there for a long time, but long enough for me to video a few people looking at it. The painting is 20cm X 20cm and I plan to fix it to the wall with blue tack. There will be some text which will accompany the painting, basically explaining it’s purpose , media and size, which will not contain an obscure materials.
The deadline for my project is the 26th of October and I would really like to be able to partake in this part of my research in the next week, so that I have enough time to check I have everything necessary for submission.
I would really appreciate it if you would consider my proposal and please get back to me with a decision as soon as you can so that I can consider other options if you decide not to collaborate.
Thank you very much for your time and I look forward to hearing from you soon
