Great platform for disabled people of colour in and around Birmingham to share their stories and experiences with artist Christopher

During sessions Sense TouchBase Pears we’ve been exploring mixed media mono-printing. Here’s a few from the wonderful collection, made by the people we support. I love everyone’s unique approach!

Really proud of the SEND school art provision we have grown since October. It is going from strength to strength as we work with two schools groups every month. Big shout out to Fae Kilburn for delivering such strong and engaging sessions, on behalf of Sense Arts!

It is a joy to work alongside Eddie in the Visual Arts studio Sense TouchBase Pears His energetic and playful spirit is channelled through his performative paintings which map his movements.

Another brilliant series of Tanya's Online Art Club supported by Sense @AD_Tanya_Sense shared some examples of how non-verbal artist Ross approaches the paint stick material as part of her mentorship. This inspired other members of the group to work in this way.

Some of the brilliant work made by Basecamp Sense TouchBase Pears . These layered works were created as a response to the artwork on display by LEVEL Arts Centre It is always inspiring what can happen when we expand access to arts and culture, for the people we support.

Love the boldly coloured framing of Yiannis' work!

Last week Cienne discovered her practice is inspired by nature she also made the decision that printmaking is a process she enjoys & wants to develop. So today during here 1-2-1 Sense TouchBase Pears she created these beautiful Gelli prints exploring nature and layering #ThisisMyArt

Big moment for our Visual Arts Artistic Director Tanya Raabe-Webber @AD_Tanya_Sense !

This week we've been turning artwork into process books! It's been great to have artist/educator Polly Brant working with the folks from Basecamp over the past 4 weeks here at Sense TouchBase Pears

As part of #DeafAwarenessWeek2024 sessions in May are inspired by Deaf artist and ARTivist #NancyRourke who communicates her lived experience through her bold work. I love the colours and the stories she tells within her work. You can find out more here : youtu.be/6Og4BMcp3WA?si…

Expanding access to arts and culture is at the heart of what we do as Sense Arts. Here is a magical moment when Azhar explored Roxanne Smith's work - a Neurodivergent artist who is mentored by ArtRiotCollective. The shapes and colours then inspired Azhar's work back in the studio!
