Name: Helen Jones, aka Elluse

Title: Rave Under A Bridge, 2019

Medium: Oil Paint and UV Paint

Our media has improved when it comes to having an inclusive attitude and involving all types of people, particularly the BBC.

But I still think we have a long way to go. If we call ourselves a civilised society, we should be happy to pay our taxes and help the disabled and underprivileged.

I am proud to have raved in the 90s. This rave under bridge
artwork shows all the types of people that make our lives interesting. The ones that live on the edge of society and prefer being alternative. Illegal raves may have been dangerous, but you could find lots of types of people that, for whatever reason, wouldn’t get into the posh clubs.
