This structure of a house was made by @DavidTovey1975 out of the car he used to sleep in whole homeless - and stands alongside work by the likes of the legendary Rankin.

This week, we visited Homelessness: Reframed at the @saatchi_gallery, an inspiring exhibition developed in partnership with @HomewardsUK 🎨
We’re proud to have been a part of this impactful project, and hope this exhibition challenges perceptions surrounding #homelessness.

So excited to be running these sessions for One Roof at @olddiorama next week!
If you've experienced/are experiencing homelessness, and want to show the world what you're made of from behind the safety of a mask, come down tomorrow (Monday 8th) and Friday 12th to play with me!
Getting inspired looking at pictures of masks made at Mark Jennings's session in last year's One Fest of Homeless Arts at @olddiorama...
Honoured to be collaborating on next week's renamed One Roof festival, running the Creating Theatre sessions!
