Gromit Unleashed is back, bringing everybody’s favourite pooch, Gromit, and friends to the streets in a dazzling new arts trail with a touch of movie magic. From 30 June to 31 August, Bristol will be decorated with giant sculptures of Aardman’s classic characters —each lovingly crafted by talented artists, and each with a story to tell.
And here’s the big news: for the first time, Gromit Unleashed will celebrate the world of storytelling and film. Expect a mix of sculptures that hint at timeless fables and wonders of the big screen.
Each of these characters will be reimagined in spectacular, movie-inspired designs, giving Bristol’s streets a hint of Hollywood sparkle! Think shimmering disco floors, heroic epics, and whimsical landscapes.
Gromit Unleashed 3 follows the success of the award-winning Gromit Unleashed and Shaun in the City arts trail, which have generated £20million for Bristol Children’s Hospital since 2013.
The wonderful Becca Luger visited my print studio, Spike Print Studio in Bristol, to film my preparations for the 'Made in Bristol Gift Fair.'
The film illustrates how and why I love to make greeting cards.
Visit my printmaking page for another video on how I create my screenprints.
