Tactile box

The Held in the Hand project was commissioned by Leicestershire Artworks in 2008, with funding from Renaissance.

13 artists from across the UK were commissioned to create tactile objects small enough to be held in the hand. The collection of objects, housed in their special box, is available for loan to schools in Leicestershire to use for creative projects.

 

 
 
 
 
 


 

 

 
 

Each artist accompanied their piece with a written description of the ideas behind the work.

The project manager was Jo Dacombe with Lisa Webb, the Artworks Officer.
