“Can’t Kill Us All.”

A collaboration with Far From The Norm

I was commissioned by London based Dance Organisation ‘Far From The Norm’ to create visual artwork to accompany their BBC funded short film ‘Can’t Kill Us All’; a visual representation of the pains of surviving a pandemic and being Black in Britain, the artwork was to show the importance of holding onto the powers of your inner child and how hardships can be rescued by things like a creative outlet.

Off the back of this I held a workshop explaining the thought process of the piece, and shared a look into my creative process with members of Far From The Norm and other parts of their community. The project and artwork were recently featured in Google Arts’ Black History Month section.

The second project I worked on a piece entitled ‘Thug-ocracy’ another visual accompaniment for a  project highlighting the lack care shown to the youth by British politicians, highlighting the irony in accusing younger generations of violence when they perpetuate greed, violence and questionable morals.

Most recently, I completed a collection of illustrations Far From The Norm. Their award winning show BLKDOG is touring the UK and as part of their promotional run I was commissioned to illustrate the poses and thoughts of some of their very talented dancers.
