Pure Evil, Artist, said: “After a mammoth brainstorming effort at the Hard Rock Cafe bar in Las Vegas I ended up with a list on a napkin of various design ideas and combined them to make this the ‘ideas wheel for lazy designers’ an innovative tool to aid the imagination when inspiration is needed.

“The Impossible IS possible ! Mount the 3 wheels onto thin card, pin them together into 3 concentric circles and come up with thousands of different idea possibilities for your art project.”

Magnus Gjoen, Artist, said: “My Mother worked most of her life in psychiatry, specifically rehabilitating people with drug and drink addictions so the work that The Big Issue does has always been important to me. Psychologically not working and not contributing to society has a great impact on a person’s mental health, therefore, the work that The Big Issue does not only give people an income but also a sense of purpose.”  

Russell Blackman, MD of The Big Issue, said: “In recent years we’ve had many brilliant artists work with us and it’s raised thousands of pounds for The Big Issue in supporting our mission of giving those who are experiencing poverty and social exclusion a hand up.

“Now, to mark our 30th birthday, we’re delighted to unveil this year’s unique collection, which is bigger and better than ever before. By buying your wrapping paper from us this Christmas you are directly helping to better the lives of people who, now more than ever before, need our support.”

Every purchase through The Big Issue Shop puts people and planet first. The wrap is printed on recycled paper and packed in recyclable plastic.
