I worked with a group of adult students to produce a range of gel-plate prints, exploring colour and texture with leaves and grasses, recycled materials like bubblewrap, and carved wooden blocks. Then we ripped them up into tiny pieces and used them to construct 4 collages on A3 sized paper. These collages were heading for an exhibition at The Senedd and the A3 originals were scanned and expanded to fit 4 panels, around 4 metres high. So the tiny fragments have taken on a different dimension entirely, we’re able to see the tiniest of details on a huge scale. The exhibition is called “Home, The Key To Hope” and it’s centred around artwork and writing by people who have recently experienced homelessness It’s free and runs until February 13th.
