65,000






I have been playing around with the number 65,000 as that was the amount of people living on the streets/homeless in the UK in 2010. I initially wanted to repeat the number 65,000 times and then I realised how long that would take! Not sure it's feasible! However, I have screen pritnted the number NUMEROUS times onto wallpaper which I will then hang up outdoors. 

The prints didn't turn out perfect as they have done with my HOME SWEET HOME wallpaper but I actually quite like the affect they have. I think if outdoors they would gradually wear and tear and in a way, the faded areas represent how homelessness is often perceived insignificantly. I will show more images once it has been used on location.
