What a fantastic day celebrating the official open What a fantastic day celebrating the official opening of the new Moseley Village train station -one of the three new stations on the Camp Hill Line -on Saturday 18 July. Artyface Community Art was delighted to bring people together at the stations to create their own beautiful ceramic clay tiles, with participants of all ages and abilities taking part. It was wonderful to see so many local residents, families and visitors leave their creative mark on this special occasion. A huge thank you to everyone who joined us and made a unique clay tile. Each one will now be fired and glazed before being incorporated into three bespoke community mosaic roundels—one for Moseley Village, one for Pineapple Road, and one for Kings Heath station. These artworks will become a lasting celebration of the communities they represent, created by the people who live, work and travel there. Thank you to everyone who stopped by, got their hands dirty with clay, and helped make the day such a memorable celebration. #moseleyvillage #trainstation #camphillmosaics #comunityart #birmingham
Four new Weaver Line mosaic roundels unveiled at B Four new Weaver Line mosaic roundels unveiled at Bethnal Green Overground Station! What an incredible celebration! It has been a privilege to work with so many people to create four permanent mosaic artworks celebrating the newly named Weaver Line and the rich history, creativity and resilience of Bethnal Green and the East End. The mosaics were created with pupils and staff from Stewart Headlam Primary School, visitors to a two-day open workshop at Rich Mix, and members of the community at the Good Shepherd Mission food bank. The artworks celebrate the area’s remarkable story – from the Huguenot silk weavers of Brick Lane and the textile and fashion industries, to the many communities who have made the East End their home. They also acknowledge the thread that connects the Weaver Line to Walthamstow and the legacy of William Morris. Community participants pressed fabrics, needles, pinking shears and sewing tools into clay to create beautiful textile-inspired textures, alongside words and symbols reflecting local history.References include the Leman Album of historic silk designs, the mulberry tree, public transport, the V&A Museum of Childhood, York Hall, Arnold Circus, Roman Road, the famous Pellicci cafe, as well as the enduring East End spirit represented by ”¡No Pasarán!” – remembering those who stood against fascism in the Battle of Cable Street. A huge thank you to everyone who made a tile, came to a workshop, supported the project or joined us for the launch. Special thanks to Trinity Buoy Wharf Trust for funding the project, First Rail for supporting the project, TfL and A.J. Wells for the beautiful enamel signs, Ardex UK and , Marmox UK for generously sponsoring materials. Also to the entire Artyface team for their dedication, creativity and hard work. Here’s to many years of people discovering the stories woven into these mosaics every time they pass through Bethnal Green. There are two on the street outside the station, one just inside the ticket barriers and one on the platform travelling away from Liverpool Street direction. Big thanks Charis aka @monokraum for the photos #communityart #londonoverground #mosaicart #bethnalgreen #publicart
Created with local residents- as always community Created with local residents- as always community is at the heart of the project! This latest colourful mosaic roundel had a lovely unveiling on June 17, 2026. We were honoured to have Geoff Coleman, the CEO of the Mildmay Hospital, give a very moving speech about the work of the dedicated doctors, nurses and team in the 80s when HIV was a new and very frightening virus. The compassion, bravery and care of staff and volunteers at the Mildmay Hospital is celebrated with the renaming of the Mildmay Line, celebrating our beloved NHS and the pioneering work that took place. Lots of clay tile making workshops took place at Acton Gardens, at City Harvest Food Bank and at a Meet the Manager event at a local station. Acton Historical Society, along with other local organisations and community members, took part making bespoke individual clay tiles celebrating this area -the local history, people, places and events that residents wanted to celebrate in this unique public work of art. Vistry Group generously funded this project along with First Rail. Special thanks go to sponsors Marmox UK, Ardex UK, A.J.Wells and the stainless steel for the metal frame came from @metals4u_uk . As always massive thanks to all participants and the Artyface team and all who took part. There’s a link in bio to a lovely article written by the Mildmay Hospital about this project. #southacton #community #mosaic_art #publicart
Come and join us at the brand-new station opening Come and join us at the brand-new station opening at Moseley Village on Saturday, July 18. I will be there 11 am-3pm with some soft clay tiles for people to make their mark in and some other activities in case the clay runs out! Your mini masterpieces will be carefully trimmed, fired to 1000 degrees, then glazed by hand and fired again to 1280°.This makes them frostproof, colourful and durable - full of your messages for commuters and passers- by for the coming years. We are really looking forward to working with The Community at the Station to create the mosaic roundel for Moseley Village. We already have some tiles made having worked with students at local schools as well as community workshops on the Camphill Line over the past month. Perhaps you can spot your tile in the reel? #publicart #mosaic #camphillmosaics #train #railway
