Question

​

Can I co-create using a brand new medium (spray paint) and on unknown surfaces?

about

​

This was a challenge and I loved it. Not hugely because of the final works, next time I’d like to try a slimmed down palette, but the process and the scale. Co-creating a piece of work in design and production pushed me out of a box, instigated a love of the large scale and has started an slightly infatuated investigation into mural works across the world. Again, again, again!
