[Print-making in Out of the Shadows]

Hebden Bridge based artist Vic Cruz delivered 10 workshops in print making. These workshops were aimed at asylum seekers, refugees, migrant workers and volunteers who work with these communities. Participants used digital and disposable cameras to take photos, then etched these photos to create a basis for ink prints and collages. They also used software such as Photoshop to manipulate the photos and create new images. The resulting work included ink portraits and images of Halifax, and was exhibited at Square Chapel in June 2007.
