My Photo from the British museum of El Anatsui's design
I spent the day researching artists, designers and people that sort of link to my project & inspire me & the drawings that I have produced & I've put these into a research sketch book for Pop-up2. The first person I researched was El Anatsui the African textiles artist that creates large scale installations hand crafted from the metal around wine bottles. I first came across him when Clare Rose took us to the British Museum African galleries and he instantly stood out to me as a person of interest for my project.
