Independent Leeds: Hallowed Footsteps

Below are the spot images I was asked to illustrate for the article entitled 'Hallowed Footsteps', an account of the history and regeneration of Leeds' oldest street, Kirkgate.

East St. Arts, Art Hostel

 Kirkgate Minster

Wapentake, new bakery/cafe

White Cloth Hall, the original building

And here is the magazine spread!

It was quite surreal seeing my work in an actual published magazine, but it felt like a huge accomplishment.

So where can this fit into my extended practice?

I feel a bit burnt out by the whole buildings thing to be honest. What started as my own exciting venture has been almost immediately commercialised and fired into the eyes of the public, which has kind of burnt out the flame for me. Now that FMP is on the horizon, I honestly don't know if I have time to continue doing one a week with the buildings, so alternatively in terms of my portfolio I could chronologically add this article after the one a week, to show progression and commercial success.
