Manchester One Year On

This project is pretty close to my heart due to it being in ,my home city. One year ago a bomb went of in the Manchester Arena and with its being the anniversary I wanted to help celebrate the lives of those who were lost. So I helped at several restaurants to decorate their stores in remembrance. 

Firstly I designed a little bit of imagery for the front of Frankie and Bennys. They are situated right next to St Annes square where the flowers were laid after the bombing last year. Which already has some flowers and writing on the ground in remembrance. 
I then added some artwork onto the chalkboards at Zizzi's King Street. I kept it in keeping with the wall art on the back wall which is flowers and bees. 
I then created an illustration for my own personal use and I then printed it out and displayed it at the Frankie and Bennys in the Printworks. I also added bee's all over the windows.
