Place

Since 2021, we have collaborated with artists and communities to create 12 public artworks across Merseyside.

To date, we have worked with artists Emma Colbert, Billy Colours, Frances Disley, Faunagraphic, Cherie Grist, Nomad Clan, Jo Peel, Juneau Projects and Carrie Reichardt. Each piece has been made with communities local to the artwork's location, including Holy Spirit Primary School; SHAP housing residents, women from CGL St Helens; Halewood and Huyton residents; young people from The Lee Cooper Foundation and Newton Community Centre, and staff from Northern.

Each artwork is unique to the location and the people involved, and created by artists specialising in art forms from graffiti art, to mosaic murals to ceramic sculpture.

Part of a series of public artworks platforming the work of women and LGBTQIA+ artists.
