Cloth of Kindness
Sally-Anne Lomas is Creative Director of the Cloth of Kindness – a textile arts health and well-being project in which people are invited to sew words of kindness on patches which are made into a Cloth of Kindness to inspire and comfort others.
The first Cloth of Kindness was made by Sally-Anne in 2015 for the Exhibition Julian of Norwich: Creativity and Compassion at the Burning Bush Barn Contemplative Arts Space, since then Cloths have been made with the Norfolk and Norwich University Hospital, The Big C Centres in Norwich, Kings Lynn and Great Yarmouth, The Norwich Theatre Royal Creative Matters, James Paget Hospital, The Great Hospital and we are currently working with the Theatre Royal and Bowthorpe Arts festival to make a Covid Commemorative Cloth.

Eyelash Tree Stand
Since the beginning of the first Lockdown in 2020 Sally-Anne has been capturing photographs of the same stand of trees (the Eyelash Tree Stand) every day mainly at dawn, sometimes at dusk, but at other hours too, in order to capture the unique beauty of each day and the astonishing variety that seasons, the weathers and the movement of the planet creates with the same small patch of earth.
The project will last a year following the trees through a complete cycle of life. Sally-Anne intends to present the work in an Exhibition in 2022.
