Monitor and Louise Atkinson, Adam Bridgeland, Simon Canaway, Helen Grundy, John Hall, Mike Lewis and Alexander Stevenson, Rebecca Strain

Description

Monitor commissioned eight artists to design a limited edition set of badges for each postcode area on the periphery of Leeds city centre. The badges are the culmination of the artists' research undertaken in each area, and encapsulate their experiences. Monitor invited the public to navigate Leeds to collect the full set of badges. To start off your collection, the Monitor collective designed a ninth badge for the city centre.
