Forest of the Imagination 2018

It’s been a busy few  weeks, especially for Alison, preparing for the annual Bath children’s arts and creativity festival, Forest of the Imagination

Making art installations and running workshops by reworking the materials used in packaging helps us to see  these unnoticed and unloved materials in new ways.

                                                       Crocheting with crisp packets 

                                 Making flowers from crisp packets with school groups 

                                                             Decorating the willow tree

Alison made this installation, Shimmer,  for the tree in Kingsmead Square, Bath, from catering size coffee packets. Click on the link to see shimmer in motion and to hear the voices of children enjoying creativity in the forest!
