Susan Bleakley worked at Tarmac Topmix during the Public Arts Laboratory project organised by Liverpool Manchester Design Initiative. LMDI offers a free ‘matchmaking’ service helping commissioners identify the right creative for their project, and also offers advice on commissioning processes. The Public Arts Laboratory was a one off project funded by the Arts Council A4E fund that linked artists with industry partners to explore and experiment with new applications of materials and processes. The project culminated in a touring exhibition in 1999-2000.
