2020 would have been the 20th anniversary of the Teenage Cancer Trust show at The Royal Albert Hall. One year on, this collection of 21 artworks celebrates the charity's ongoing connections with the music industry.
It's an initiative from Tom Hingston, designer, art director and founder of Hingston Studio, who's renowned for his creative collaborations with musicians. Over the past 20 years, he has created album covers for the Rolling Stones, Massive Attack, Grace Jones, David Bowie, Nick Cave and the Chemical Brothers, amongst many others.
"The idea for the show was to mark 20 years of the charity's shows at the Royal Albert Hall and their connection to music – something that is very close to our hearts," Tom says. "We're proud to have been able to realise this project, in spite of everything this year, with some truly exceptional talent and great friends of the studio. We hope you enjoy looking at the work and feel inspired to play a part in raising funds for this incredibly important organisation."
