Sleeping Rough
A collaborative project with Megan Pilcher-King exploring the issues and misconceptions surrounding homelessness through public artwork. Raising awareness and initiating conversation.
Through observation we found a correlation between the discarded mattresses around Bristol and those facing homelessness. How both once had the safety and secuity of a home yet now exiled, looked down upon. Intentionally ignored and disregarded.
This is what lead to the mattresses being the perfect way to project our research
through visuals with the utalisation of
the 'Urban Canvas'.
