Work experience

For my official college work experience I was able to raise awareness for modern day slavery through the medium of art. A group and I created an illustrated comic book showing factual information as well as correct terminology for younger generations. My tutors nominated me to give a speech in March 2020 in the houses of parliament in the house of lords explaining the skills and knowledge gained within this experience.
Previous Exhibitions
Surface Gallery
A group of 13 peers and I Collaborated to create our first non solo show to show in the public eye. My group and I decided to take an artists gallery space out of a studio and place it in a gallery environment. Whilst creating this we progressed onto creating this 'artist' who's studio this belonged to.The ideation process seemed to be difficult for us as a team as we wanted to make sure that the idea we chose would show our concept we had visioned.
