An enormous photographic banner will feature on the side of Park Hill Flats to form one of the most visible signs of the Sheffield Children’s Festival.
The work, titled “Close Up”, will feature self portraits of pupils from 15 schools from Arbourthorne, Manor and Darnall, who have been working with artist, photographer and filmmaker Esther Johnson.
Each school has been asked to nominate a child deemed to have made a real contribution to their community and their pictures have been put together to create one huge image of one child who represents the spirit of the place.
