This exhibition displayed wallpaper patterns designed by young people in the care of Waltham Forest in collaboration with Waltham Forest Virtual School and artist Angela Groundwater.
​
Through workshops at the William Morris Gallery and via Zoom during lockdown, the young people made patterns using drawing and objects that are significant to them, creating designs that commemorate the stories of their lives. The project challenged the participants to create beautiful designs from their lived experiences in the context of Morris's own designs, whilst exploring craft practice as a viable career.
The project was a Finalist in the 2022 International Surface Design Awards
​
The exhibition was held at the William Morris Gallery from July to September 2021.
