Sculpture I / Methodologies of Creation
Practice question · Multiple choice

Why is "the participants had a good experience" an insufficient account of a participatory project?

Hints
  1. Ask what the account leaves out about authorship and consequences.
  2. A good afternoon and a share in the authorship are different things.
Show the answer

D. It says nothing about whether they were collaborators or material, or what remains for them afterwards

Why

Because it omits both authorship and consequences. Whether the participants were collaborators with a stake in the work or material within someone else's, and what remains for them when the funding stops, are separate questions from whether the afternoon went well, and they are the ones the participants live with.
