I Love It When You Sing. 2012

The Bow Arts live/work scheme is a social enterprise project that places creative practitioners within deprived areas of the East End of London. The scheme offers artists live-in studio space within condemned estates prior to demolition/regeneration, as well as opportunities to engage with the local through community-based arts projects.

‘I Love It When You Sing’ explores the lives of the artists on the scheme.
