Artist David Bixter, has been working with Year 9 pupils from Oaklands School
Inspired by archive photographs depicting Winsford’s salt mines and the various hand tools and machinery used by the miners. The pupils have made a series of soundboxes, decorated with prints of the salt mines. They used the soundboxes to create an imagined soundscape of the salt mines, with melodies inspired by their journeys to and from Winsford. The artwork will be installed in Winsford Library.
