Safety Net

Come and join in with this fun wellbeing project which has been running since the start of my Residency! During this workshop you’ll make a small diamond shaped collage featuring images of your own personal “Safety Net,” be it a person, a place, an animal or a hobby! Once finished the diamond will be connected to all the other ones made by the community to create one large “Safety Net” which will be displayed and photographed at locations all over Sinclair’s Bay. Please feel free to take along your own photographs!
