In collaboration with artist Inti Hernandez, and the Latin American Housing Coop.

Una Sola Casa was a large-scale artist project that sought to engage with the Latin American community in Lambeth, to highlight and celebrate its presence and contribution to London life.

Additionally, the project looked to create new platforms for exchange and collaboration between Latin American artists, community leaders and organizations, and to broker relations with policy makers and local public services providers.

Una Sola Casa consisted of a series of activities planned and delivered with the Members of the Latin American Housing Coop, that responded closely to their needs and interests. We did day trips, dinner parties, film screenings, and held forums to discuss issues as varied as housing, education, political representation and our relationship to other ethnic minorities.

We also made a big clean up, renovations and painted a mural at the Estate where the Members of the Coop live, and arranged and chaired several meetings with Executive Officers for Housing, local Councillors, and the Management Team of their Estate.
