A few years back I had the pleasure of working with British artist Sue Lawty at the start of her period as artist in residence at the Victoria and Albert Museum. I’ve kept in touch with Sue and what she has been doing since I left, via her blog on the V&A website (and chance encounters in corridors!)

Sue works in tapestry and in stone, and created fantastic stone drawings direct on the wall for her installation at the V&A in 2005. She and the V&A have now launched the World Beach Project, an international participatory art project, where people all over the world can make beach drawings inspired by Sue’s work and upload them to the V&A website.
