David Tootill Mosaics Event
Join us at Hillcroft campus and hear from David Tootill (Principal of London School Mosaics) talking about the William Blake (Lambeth) Mosaics and the story behind them.
This is the launch event to the Hillcroft Mosaic Project which includes the restoration of the William Blake Mosaics by RHACC's Artist in Residence Jo Lewis which will then be displayed at Surbiton station in the Summer.
This talk is a personal journey through the reasons for creating Blake’s Lambeth project, which installed 70 mosaics around Hercules Rd where William Blake lived 1790-1800. It includes a chronology, gaining funding, collaboration with artists and volunteers, a look at William Blake the artist and poet and opportunities for public realm enhancement.
