Beyond Caring
Carers in Hackney aged 50-and-over got together, with a little help from Angela, to make their own wallpaper and share personal experiences of life ‘Beyond Care’ through their significant objects. They exhibited and celebrated their work with an exhibition and launch party at U7 lounge in Hoxton - September 2019.
Angela documented their experience with a wallpaper combining all participants and their objects which you can purchase below. Every purchase creates revenue that feeds back into these activities whilst promoting an under appreciated sector of society.
