I'm excited to share that I have been commissioned by @antiracistcmbra to research about the Transatlantic Human Trafficking and Trade of Enslaved African people and its relationship with Cumbria and to help bring this history to life creatively.
It has been such a joy to bring their principles into the way I work and approach this project as I explore the topics of enslavement, exploitation, and greed.
These illustrations form part of the work I've been doing for them and will be used by attendees as part of a workshop at an upcoming session! #localhistory#cumbria#art#slavery#research

My assignment about creating an ethical framework has been submitted!
It had to be 15 to 20 mins but, the original recording was 30 mins...
So I had to remove every pause, um, and breath until I finally got it down to 19 mins 59 secs ๐
