The women's group which takes place on a Monday is being led by an established Artlink artist, Milena Dragic. Currently the group are developing an animation as well as storyboarding and creating the models to act as the central characters to the piece. They have each produced their own piece of work and will be working towards a combined piece, watch this space as it will be uploaded here! Due to the nature of the women's situations we are getting flux of different participants throughout, however it does seem to be working well with the overall project.
The Touchstone - Sikh Elders group are working on the project "Picking Up The Thread" together with artists Bryony Pritchard, Musarat Raza and volunteer Amarjit Birdi. So far the women are exploring a range of different textile techniques and have visited the Royal Armouries to look at the artefacts of the Indian Army collection, taking many photos to be used as inspiration for the forthcoming weeks. As the groups progress we'll document their progress here. In the meantime, take a look at the photos from the projects. Hayley
