Instagram Challenge

Instagram Challenge mauve

In the lead up to the opening of the Creative Connections exhibition on 20th June, the National Portrait Gallery are running a weekly Instagram challenge inspired by portraits of people in the gallery who have links to the borough of Ealing. The idea came from Eelyn Lee's original proposal for her commission to create a piece of moving image work with year 10 students from Brentside High School. 

The first challenge [above] was created by Yousuf and inspired by William Perkin who invented the process for making the colour mauve using coal tar which was first produced in a factory in Greenford.

Check the Creative Connection blog for the next challenge and get invovled using the hashtag #ealingconnections
