This April, The Bomb Factory Art Foundation presents a line up of creative prompts from resident artists of their studios that engage with the local community through their work.

“The Bomb Factory Art Foundation is committed to fostering inclusivity and accessibility in the art world by dismantling barriers to art education and enrichment. Through the opening of our five sites in London, we operate extensive exhibition and education programs that benefit local communities and schools. Additionally, we offer the public opportunities to engage with contemporary art through exhibitions, workshops, screenings, poetry evenings, performances, talks, and various cultural events. For more information about our initiatives, to support us, and to see the dates for upcoming shows, follow us on social media or visit our website.”

This week it’s over to Hannah Colthorpe!

“I'm Hannah, I am a 23 year old artist from Nottingham. I'm in my last year of studying Fine Art at Central Saint Martins. My work is about building funny cartoon characters which represent myself and my friends and strangers I interact with! The characters interact with each other and run into issues along the way, which I represent through drawings, printmaking and performance. I like performing wearing masks and funny costumes and making people laugh!

The character which represents me is a dinosaur named Steg. It's fun to physically make characters so that you can play out stories with them.

If you follow these instructions, you can make your own character to make stories with!”
