Connecting Threads

Recently I was able to do some work experience with two artists from Manchester, Emily Hayes and Becky Waite at their exhibition "Connecting Threads" held at the Manchester Digital Lab.  

The work was based on collaborations the artists had developed with people attending various homeless centres in Manchester.  It was a wonderful mix of drawing, print, stitch and poetry.

Throughout the week of the exhibition people were able to drop in to add stitch or drawings to a printed landscape created from the original participants drawings.
