This is an image of my work in progress for an exhibition called Once Upon a Time at the new Art Salon Gallery in Cambridge, 1 Thrifts Walk, Chesterton, from March 26th to April 9th. The not so private view is Saturday March 26th, 6pm to 9pm, all welcome. My work is called, “Once upon a time there was council housing …” and I am making clay tents and other places that people are forced to live and sleep in these days, to go with a collection of “Whimsies.” I am also telling stories about housing and homelessness and featuring work made in collaboration with Jannie Brightman, Denise Knowelden and others as part of Cambridge Unite Communities Housing protests.
