My paper cut artworks,inspired by Axbridge and District Museum, are joining the works of the other artist from the Muse: Makers in Museums project and will be on show at the Museum of Somerset. An excellent opportunity to see all of the artists from Devon and Somerset I am really looking forward to seeing the different artworks on display. 

I am spending a very enjoyable summer working with the volunteers at Axbridge & District Museum, focusing on the ancient documents held in their archives. 
The project involves quite a lot of community engagement which is made easy by the accessibility of craft to all age groups. I have looked and traditional methods of writing through the ages and have really enjoyed watching young and old people engage with the project.

Its always the same with blog posts, nothing for ages then loads come along at once!

I am really happy to share the news with you that I have been selected as one of the artists working in local, volunteer led museums in Somerset and Devon. 

Over the summer I will have the privilege of working with the museums collection and the marvellous and very knowledgable volunteers to create a body of work focusing on local craft. I can't tell you how many ideas I have and am only disappointed that the project will eventually have to end! However, I will be blogging as part of the project and will keep you posted with details a bit later.
