Artist Ibukun Baldwin has been continuing to meet with a group of young people at Matthew Moss Youth Centre. Together they have been exploring their favourite foods, re-envisioning them as fruits on a tree or budding from a flower plant.

Creating the food fruits in simple shapes and limited colours, the group are exploring elements of pattern design for Ibukun’s large scale textile installation, that will take the form of a curtain to divide off a particular area of the new museum space. The group will meet for a more intensive summer school working with Ibukun on the physical printing and construction of the curtain fabric, before spending some time developing their embroidery skills ready to applique the designs after the summer months.
