What a gorgeous celebration and work of art from @60MilesNN beautiful illustrations and storytelling about REAL people and REAL communities in Northamptonshire. Go and see the exhibition at V&B Northampton. Further congrats to Laura Graham, @singeviolette and team
The last step in creating the @60MilesNN comic book anthology was to design the #cover, in collaboration with our Graphic Designer, Sophie Dutton 🎨
It shows the participants “building” a page by bringing their stories into the panels: exactly what happened during the sessions😉
A very happy 50th birthday to @FavellShopping 🥳
We loved partnering with you to create the ‘Faces of Favell’ exhibition.
You can access all our portrait photography, documentary film and audio trilogy in person or online:
