Spanish Steps, Vinyl print, 2020
In a year of people being asked to stay apart, the design features hundreds of unique, self-illustrated faces “drawn together”, placed side-by-side and shaded to form a rainbow, reflecting the public working together to tackle the pandemic. Using a community-centric creative process, the London-based designer Tash Randolph invited people across the UK to feature in this inclusive artwork by drawing their self-portraits on Instagram stories, combining the digital world with the physical. From a distance, the illuminated artwork gives the illusion of a rainbow climbing the steps, whilst up close it showcases 612 individuals who submitted a self-portrait and had their drawings rendered by Randolph.
