Arts Council Nat. Lot. - Touchstone 25

Touchstone - National Lottery Grant

Here are examples of my current work and other projects that have lead to the development of the idea. This includes the final outcome for my Develop Your Creative Practice funding in 2021. I have also highlighted at the bottom of the page, three examples of my community based participatory workshops.

The button below leads to Hossam Fazulla's comprehensive Instagram - he is a film-maker and illustrator and a member of the Counterpoint Arts team. Included in the funding bid are costings for Hossam to film the practical sessions and create a reel for inclusion in the final exhibition and as a pivotal publicity tool to assist to the future of the project.

Refugee Stories - PhotoEast Festival 2018
I was commissioned by the festival to work with our local refugee community to create work around the theme of Belonging. I photographed them and then bonded their portraits onto OSB wooden sheets, using spray paints to blend int the images. The participants shared their stories and hand wrote onto the artworks with acrylic pens on completion.
