#workingclassmovementlibrary

Big thanks to the Working Class Movement Library for hosting the project talk as part of their Invisible Histories series and to the brilliant turn out and feed back from attendees! 

ILLUSTRATIONS AND MATERIALS I CREATED FOR AN EVENT WHICH I CAME UP WITH TO PROMOTE THE MATERIALS STORED IN THE WORKING CLASS LIBRARY

Good day yesterday on the plate commission , I have around 40 plates banded, stamped and numbered for day one of the mass participation weeklong workshop at Salford Museum and Art Gallery, I will try and get another 50 done this weekend. If I get 40 plates a day decorated I should reach my 200 target by the end of the week! Some of the the conflicts I've never heard of and they have a staggering number of fatalities , and then there are the second and third of these conflicts too. 226 global conflicts in 100 years. Please come down and say hello , decorate a plate and make your mark in history! #worldwar1 #1418now #salfordmuseumandartgallery #workingclassmovementlibrary #ceramics #installationart #contemporaryart #plates #platedecoration #commemorativeplate #conflict #peace #jamesbloomfield #shedstudio #artiststudio #artworkshop
