In March 08 we worked with artist Sally Booth to make a film documentary of her residency at Merton Abbey Primary School.

We interviewed teachers, funders, the artist and the young people involved.
The theme was local landmarks and Merton Abbey Mills was chosen for the young people to study. We accompanied them on their visit to make preliminary sketches.

They used the Wandle Trail, the local environment and unconventional and recycled materials as inspiration.

In January 08 we began a participation project with a group of young people in Camden to develop materials for their new Integrated Working initiative.

We began by running a design and writing day where the young people interpreted written work about the initiative in a way that would communicate to young people. They then decided on layout, fonts, colour schemes and chose images to illustrate the materials.

They followed this up with a session to develop a logo for the campaign.

Using the young people’s ideas we developed a range of brochures, posters, forms, questionnaires and banners for the project.

digital:works artist Joe Stevens has been working with residents of Old Town, Poole and Parkstone to document their lives through photography. The ‘Beautiful’ project has enabled the group to create a series of images that reflect the extraordinary through to the everyday and beautiful elements of their lives. This has resulted in a stimulating body of photographic work, which was exhibited in a number of places around Dorset.
