More than 180 people have signed up to embroider the beautiful anatomical sculptures of hand surgeon and artist, Donald Sammut.
They are 73 members of the Embroiderer’s Guild; 28 young people (11-25) who are receiving education outside of mainstream schools- 13 at Project Inc. Specialist Creative College for neuro-diverse young people and 15 at The New Broadwalk, Salford’s Pupil Referral Units; 68 Medical students and medical practitioners (national and international) and 15 others including local and international artists and Manchester’s Culture Champions.
That means that kit making is the new cottage industry in our house!
And trips to the Post Office are interesting…
Some amazing examples are already being send back to me! Can’t wait to incorporate them into a sculpture of a working hand.
