Design & Making

Set and model design, painting, masks, installations, posters and programmes — the work that makes the thing.

The making work comes out of a theatre-maker's training and a habit of building by hand: set and costume design, scale models, scenic painting, masks and live casting, installations, and poster and programme design.

Some of it was made for productions; some is concept and design work. All of it was made in a room, with material, at a scale you can hold or stand inside.
