London Drawing's Tower of London Lock-in as part of the BIG DRAW festival London

Imagine a lit up cobbled pathway,
and an eerie cold room,
a few crunching footsteps from the guards,
and shadows jumping off the heavy steel windows,
imagine a night where 20 people are let loose after hours,
to roam the ancient bricked rooms,
where histories of royality and tormented prisoners loom.
since 1066, when the Norman Conquest hit upon its walls
The Tower of London 
is where the story falls.
















We drew in darkened rooms to the tales being told by historical figures 
We interpreted our own narratives in what we created.
King Henry the V111 even paid a visit.
