Army of Me

Army of Me is an annual project on BA (Hons) Illustration programme. Senior students (Level 6) gather up in teams together with younger students (Level 4 & 5) and assign the latter with a certain creative mission. One of the tasks this year was to take part in a charity event, as part of which volunteers sew toys basing on sketches drawn by kids from orphanages and departments of infectious disease.

«I chose a sketch of a bear not actually knowing who drew it; I then spent a day on creating a toy trying to make it look exactly like the sketch. I then handed it over to our "team leader" (Level 6 student) so that she could give the toy to the orphanage», — Nina Akshba, Level 4 BA (Hons) Illustration student.
