Brief 54: Going Incognito
Deadline: 22nd February 2013

This brief is inspired by spies in trenchcoats, a wardrobe of disguises and the art of being unseen.
This year we're experimenting with how long each brief is open so expect to be on your toes!
Our favourite submission and secret prize winner from last month goes to Alice- we loved her characters.
Looking forward to seeing everyone's take on the brief! E-mail your works to the usual address- sparkapolooza at gmail dot com or you can upload to Facebook/Twitter/Instagram and tag us.

Brief 47: The Wheel of Fortune
Brief 47: The Wheel of Fortune
Deadline: Monday, 2 April 2012
Image created by: Jordan Clarke
The Wheel of Fortune, or Rota Fortunae, is a concept in medieval and ancient philosophy referring to the capricious nature of Fate. This wheel belongs to the goddess Fortuna. In the modern days, the Wheel of Fortune is also a game on television and at casinos. One concept, different ways of interpretations. We're also inspired by Kay Starr's music. What's your take on the brief?

Each month when we put up a brief we try to walk the line between two meanings. We're inspired by dance, colour, movement and of course, shapes. Which way will you go?
