The video below is part of a digital media campaign to help rebuild the Mackintosh Building which was destroyed by fire in 2014. The Glasgow School of Art’s Mackintosh building, a symbol of British art, was reduced to ash and out of the ruins came a brilliant idea, turn the charcoal into works of art. From the ashes of the building, artists were supplied with charcoal to create works of art that were auctioned off by Christies in March. The proceeds from the auction are being used to rebuild the Mackintosh building. The animated short captures the feeling of hand-drawn charcoal and highlight how some of the artists engaged with the medium. Unfortunately, the website feels like a bit of an afterthought and is less than exciting. There is a section that shows the pieces created though, which is worth checking out.
