Background
Background
From a young age, Meyrick Tilley's passion for the world around him was evident to see. From joining Disability charity walks as a wee child, putting the message of Disability rights front and centre for all to see, to becoming fully immersed in the growing digital age around him, learning the basics of Photoshop by the age of 9, winning the regional of the F1 in schools project, going all the way to the British Final in 2012, to winning the Bridgend Youth Short Film Project, Meyrick never let go of that love for learning and hope for people, and this can been seen throughout his work today.
In a world that is deeply divided and unjust, Meyrick has dedicated his projects to rejecting the growing consensus of hate within our policical enviroment, giving something back to the people with a message of hope in which they can see themselves within, whether that be through policy ideas that would benefit thousands, or creating Art, Films and designs that challenge the norms of today's society and encourage self-expression and well-being.
