A little bit of etching
As part of my project on Visual Narrative, I explored the docklands of London, this led my to discover a variety of lost stories about a hamlet called Ratclif during the early Victorian era. My final project resulted in a series of etchings, all drawn and printed myself, which were displayed on a concertina to emphasise that they could be view as part of a whole story but also individually.
