Let’s Beat Knives, Newham, London, June.

Myself and two other local Blacksmiths, Mike Turner and Frances Plowden ran a powerful workshop in collaboration with Flanders field community group. We were given crates of confiscated knives by the police and with the help of local people from all ages and backgrounds who’s lives had been affected by knife crime, we shaped and textured them in the forge to form a Beetle sculpture on a pre fabricated frame we brought. This then got mounted in the community garden to send a message of transformation and hope.

Arcadia Spectacular - London, May.

Working with ‘Arcadia’, a large scale performance art collective who
combines sculpture, pyrotechnics, recycling, lighting, circus and music. I organised, set up and ran a series on hands on recycled art workshops for local children and young people from Grenfell Tower in conjunction with
their show at the Olympic Park in London.

With the team I put together, 150 children used metalwork skills,
welding and tyre crafting to produce recycled spider creatures.
