About

St. Pierre & Miquelon is Simon Elvins, Julie Hill and Tom Mower. The group is a collaboration for socially engaged art and design activities - using talks, publications and events to enquire into a broad range of issues important to both the individual and societies today. Work to date has included Attention Please, an open submission photography campaign documenting people's experiences of safety signage in public space, The Great British Citizenship Test, an event designed to see if native Brits can pass the UK Citizenship Test, and a bootleg of the architectural magazine Sexymachinery, as a way of exploring issues of copyright and ownership. They also design Manifesto Club publications, leaflets and reports, exploring a design language that expresses the club's grassroots model of political campaigning.
