I’m an educator as well as an artist and I work a couple of days a week for a national homelessness charity as an arts tutor. Over the past few months I’ve been working with a group of other staff and our members (service users) to develop an exhibition for The Senedd, the Welsh Government building in Cardiff. Amongst other things, we’ve made a giant display of collages that are exhibited on 4 enormous panels, about 4 metres high. The starting point for this process was back in the summer, when I introduced the technique of gel-plate printing and over the weeks we made gelprints from random textures, wooden carved blocks, local plants, whatever would make an interesting impression.
