I see you
2018
I am weary of the ways of the world – heartbroken, overwhelmed. Yet, against the odds, I find those compelled to give, see and feel.
Is the statement that accompanies the showing of this neon. A work that was originally made during the residency Migrations at The Arthouse, Wakefield. A residency that saw me working alongside volunteers for City of Sanctuary. A charity that support refugees being temporarily housed in the city and offers them, amongst other things, a generous welcome.
