Last week, Spiral Artist Jenny facilitated an engaging session inspired by Becky Beasley's exhibition at QUAD - Derby in collaboration with Mandy, Quad's Education Coordinator. Together, they guided young participants in crafting their own motorised mobiles, exploring, drawing, cutting, shape-making, and wire-twisting. The resulting movement and sounds were truly captivating.
Spiral Artists, Kate and Jenny were excited to be back working with the Long Eaton Self Help Group for a one off session creating mini well dressings. 
Spiral
Artist Jenny led three sessions with the Horizons 6th Form Group at QUAD in May
and June, culminating in a showcase in July.
The
students drew inspiration from Becky Beasley’s exhibition, A Gentle Man, at QUAD.
Using
cardboard, they created den-like structures with openings to look through and created colour patterns to decorate them.
