Growing Viral: the early days at Liverpool Hope

My first work at Liverpool Hope was inspired by the Ebola tragedy in West Africa which dominated the news as I started my AA2A. These first sketches and maquets show what I was originally itending to produce.

I produced a number of maquets around the theme of Ebola, and eventually realised that I was finding it too hard to create a piece that was anything other than negative - not a thing I wanted to do. I wanted a piece that gave a sense of HOPE despite the tragedies.
