In collaboration with People Express, photographer Chris Mear and I were commissioned to create an interactive installation titled 'For the Love of Lettuce' for the 2016 Melbourne Festival in South Derbyshire. I made a series of masks inspired by lettuce varieties grown locally, in order to celebrate the town of Melbourne's strong market gardening tradition which continues to this day. Chris and I were mentored by Janet Vaughan from Talking Birds.

Following on from a series of craft workshops organised by People Express, where different artists taught new skills to a group of elderly people and worked with them to create artwork, I collated and reinterpreted some of their creations to make an installation celebrating the project. This was first presented at the Festival of Leisure in June 2016. This image shows various elements of the installation including cushions, pot plants and lightboxes.

As part of the University of Nottingham's Student Chapter of the charity Article 25 which I set up along with 2 student colleagues in 2009, we painted a mural in a local school - Beeston Fields Primary & Nursery School - in February 2010. I designed the mural which featured cartoon animals eating healthily and was drawn up and painted on the large wall of the school dining hall by a team of us from the University during the school's half-term holiday.
