AN ENDLESS CONVERSATION> A project undertaken by two students from Central St Martins College MA in Creative Practice for Narrative Environments. For this I was asked to contribute the graphics for a ‘Toolkit’ for the project.
An Endless Conversation explores how design methodology can be applied in community work with a study that specifically looks into facilitating workshops for young men aged 14-17 years old. The toolkit contains communication tools for workshop facilitators to actively engage with young people and convey messages more effectively.

LEASE BE NICE TO EACH OTHER STICKERS>
A delightful young lady named Katie Thorpe was lucky enough take part in the Antony Gormley project 'One and Other', she applied for and received an hour on the 4th Plinth in Trafalgar Square, London, in Summer 2009. Katie chose to spend her hour handing out stickers I designed as part of a project to promote politeness. You can view Katie's hour by clicking here.

ORANGE ROCKCORPS PROJECT> I was asked to volunteer my spray-painting services to help renovate a South London adventure playground as part of the Orange Rockcorps volunteer project. Young people join the scheme and give four hours of their time to a community project in their area. In return, they obtain a ticket to an exclusive gig. I helped Lucie, Rochelle, Bill and Toussaint to 'decorate' a wall of Sommerville Adventure Playground. Great day!
