Over 8 weeks, members of the Café West community in Allerton worked with artist Lou Sumray to experiment in creating digital art. These artists took inspiration from their surroundings and imaginary worlds to draw digitally on tablets using the app Procreate and Brushes. Some artists joined us for every workshop and others dropped in to create a quick sketch. Everyone was invited to draw what they truly wanted to create and many were drawing digitally for the first time.
This exhibition shares all of the digital artwork that the community created and takes us on a journey through real places, imagined realms, representations of difficult times, and drawings of happier times. This exhibition is a celebration of creativity that turns the screens of our phones and tablets that we scroll through into creative devices.
This project was made possible by ‘Lets Create Jubilee Fund’ and Arts Council England. The purpose of the fund was to empower communities and organisations to work collaboratively with artists and cultural organisations.
Project produced by The Brick Box with Cafe West. Created and led by Lou Sumray.
