Creative Industries make up 6% of our economy. That’s more than car and oil industries together. They employ 2.3million people. To cut funding for creative arts at university level is fudge-brained, cack-hearted thinking pitched very much at the highest level of economic self-harm. theguardian.com/education/20…

Having cleared the building and grounds, stripped and repainted all the rooms, we are finally beginning the stud work for the new studios. Boards arrive tomorrow so watch this space for the first completed, white walled studio.

Building update! We’ve cleared all the rooms and repainted the vestry and offices. We’ve also taken down the top part of the curtain wall that was installed to protect the church while a new roof was put on. Today we are in the garden following up the tree surgeons. Progress!

My sketchbook from a residency in Aug @florencetrust exploring the wildlife that live within the grounds and the beautiful decorative interior of St Saviours. Now that this research has been compiled, I can start designing a collection of animal guardians to install in 2024 🦊🦉
