Projects

Beyond Bricks

Livingstone Road Allotments – Livingstone Road Allotments has 107 plots and is a large green space in the middle of Birchfield, the site should and could be a valuable resource for the local community to take pride in but it is currently subject to anti-social behaviour.

This project will utilise a disused building at the entrance to the allotments and work with allotment holders to help create a resource for the local community. This project will collect information, knowledge and stories from the allotment holders which will be presented in a special edition newspaper and DVD. These items along with a new allotment blog and YouTube channel will help the plot-holders connect with other local residents, raise awareness of the allotments, share their knowledge and skills and to increase local pride in the area. I am working with Richard Franks (Creative Producer) and Gavin Ingram (Graphic Designer) of Blue and White Creative on this project.

Commissioned by Multistory, Beyond Bricks is funded by Urban Living and Arts Council England, West Midlands.

Windmill Eye Video Project

Eye Make Productions – A follow up project to the film ‘Smethwick: An Eye To The Future’.

The project culminated with the creation of two short films.
