Essex, January 23rd 2025
We are delighted to share just some of the many beautiful mono-printed, traced and drawn images from The Community Table in Essex yesterday with young men housed in Wethersfield Asylum Centre.
Some of the young men joined our wintry country walk through nearby villages to the camp in December, and used analogue cameras to document this local journey. Yesterday some of the resulting photos and memories from the day were warmly revisited, with drawing into and printing from the landscapes.
Other drawings were inspired by the drop-in space, such as the hairbrush and other tools from the barbers table… and there was the sharing of knotting skills..
These workshops are in part in preparation for a further print workshop in a professional print studio. This is planned for February as part of The Hope Bridge project.
More updates and posts to follow, so please watch this space.
