Suggested Scenes from a Studio of Becoming
This collage sketches out imagined scenes from Living Threaded—a participatory art project rooted in care, co-authorship, and emotional rhythm. These suggested moments reflect the kind of studio I’m building with students and educators at Shooters Hill Sixth Form College.
