This New Ground
See our Art, Hear Our Voice

Film & Campaign Description

See Our Art, Hear Our Voice is a powerful short film that brings to life the work of This New Ground at our West London hub.

Funded by Hammersmith United Charities and created by filmmaker Chris Payne, the film follows artists Kelly and Labake, offering an intimate insight into their worlds and artistic processes. Through their voices, creativity, and lived experience, the film captures the heart of what This New Ground does and the real difference our work makes to the lives of adults with a learning disability.

Our mission is to elevate the voices and talents of artists with a learning disability by removing barriers to creation, leadership, and visibility. See Our Art, Hear Our Voice brings this mission to life, showing how our projects support artists to develop confidence, express themselves creatively, and be heard within the cultural sector and beyond.
