Description:

Working with Woodside pupils we produced 3 x 30ft double sided banners to advertise and promote the Childrens Discovery Centre which will be opening in 2001. ‘The Power of Words, Language and Communication’ was the theme of the banners which now hang from the outside of the building in Stratford.

We worked with Year 8 for two days and Year 7 for one day, hand painting the 6 pieces of 30ft cloth and then screen printing on top with images of letterforms, patterns and parts of the figure.
