A collaboration with photographer Kate Watson to create silhouette portraits using a life-size screen with papercut border. The borders are cut by hand, using a scalpel, from black paper. Participants stand behind the screen whilst Kate captures the image from the other side.

We have created Woodland, Secret Garden and Circus themed screens, and most recently ‘The Snow Queen’ for The National Trust, Kingston Lacy (November 2023). The screens were made specifically for special events.
