Living Histories illustrations for Heads On / Sussex Partnership NHS Foundation Trust’s charity
Heads On charity commissioned me to create a suite of illustrations for their ‘Living Histories’ podcasts. Living Histories shares the unheard oral histories of people who have used or worked in NHS mental health services in Sussex from the closure of the asylums in the 1980's, up to and including the Covid-19 pandemic.
Through a series of podcasts, created using clips from these oral histories, they explore the common themes threaded through these real-life stories. Living Histories was made possible with support from The National Lottery Heritage Fund, NHS Charities Together and Sussex Partnership NHS Foundation Trust.
As well as creating an illustration for each podcast, I created additional promotional artworks and designed the exhibition panels for pop-up displays highlighting the project.
And, I hand-painted murals on a seafront shelter in Worthing to increase the visibility of their exhibition at that location (see below).
