Print It Project
Hamfisted! Worked with ten schools, both primary and secondary: Heathfield, Anglesey Street, Aston Manor, Canterbury Cross, St Francis, Birchfield Primary, King Edwards, William Cowper, Broadway and Lozells Junior & Infants to create a series of images that represent the changes and ambitions the young people of Lozells, Aston and Newtown want to see take place in the area.
HamFisted! will work in ten schools to create a series of images that will be printed on backpacks that will be given to each participating child and on bookmarks that will be distributed through city libraries.
These images will be digital photographs of large artworks created during day long art workshops in schools.
The focus of the art workshops will be the celebration of diversity and the participant’s aspirations for the future of their area of the city.
The art workshops will include simple printing and colourful collage.
Inspired by the Birmingham coat of arms each participant will create their own and print it.
Thinking about the positive changes that participants could make to their area participants will create colourful collages to represent their ideas.
