To celebrate the performance of The Clockwork Crow at Volcano Theatre this December (and following on from the successful public competitions earlier in the year) Volcano is delighted to announce an open art competition and exhibition … all about Crows!
All kinds of artistic entries were welcome – as long as the focus of the piece was a crow or crows! From textiles, costumes, paintings, photographs, videos, sculptures, glass, puppets, drawings and collages to illustrated poems.

Here are the winners!
