Multicultural mural

Tuesday, October 23rd, 2007

I created this mural with all the year 4s at Burlington Junior School in New Malden. Each panel represents a continent, and each child drew an outline of a favourite animal from that continent and helped paint around it. I completed the project by writing welcome in six languages, from Korean to Tamil.

The Longest Little Book

A Big Draw event I organised with The Old Sweet Shop art gallery and Saint Cecilia’s, Wandsworth. Over 240 people came along to the school refectory one Saturday. They received a ’secret’ envelope containing a brief for part of a story about a little red hat, and an A5 ’spread’. They then stamped the hat onto the page with a self-inking rubber stamp, and used drawing and collage materials provided to create their own original section of the story. All the work wallpapered the gallery for the show afterwards.
