Community Mural Projects
Celebrating Female artists in Clapham
My mural in a Clapham deep shelter serves as a tribute to underrepresented female artists and honours London-based collectives: London Wall and the Wom Collective, which I'm a part of. The design, chosen by locals, is currently being documented by the Clapham Film Unit. Unveiling workshops encouraged community creativity and conversation. Thanks to the Mayor of London's Untold Stories Grant, this artwork will feature in London mural tours, promoting minority voices and community storytelling.

Droitwich underpass Murals
I collaborated with Whychavon District Council, Droitwhich Spa High School, and a steering group comprised of local residents. To inform the mural themes, I conducted a workshop at the school and addressed other themes highlighted by the steering groups.
I carried out extensive research into the town. Each mural represents various aspects of the local heritage and features cherished by residents. These include the brine pumping and subsequent subsidence of the high street, the Tudor architecture, the railway station, parks, the lido, riverboats, and local wildlife.
