Wysing Arts Centre
Final retreat and exhibition
22-25 June, 2017
June marks the end of an eventful year: one that has challenged and reshaped the foundation of my art practice. As part of our final retreat, I'm exhibiting a selection of work to mark the culmination of a year of research, studio production, and dialogue.
Together, we —10 artists, 2 mentors, 5 UK arts institutions and countless invited guests— asked difficult questions, exchanged critical viewpoints and helped one another grow as artists. We traveled far and wide, from Cambridge and London to Liverpool, Sheffield, Birmingham, and Athens for Documenta, forming new relationships along the way.
It's been an amazing shared experience. Special thanks to: Donna Lynas, Chelsea Pettitt, John Eng Kiet Bloomfield (Wysing, Cambridge); Kirsty Ogg (New Contemporaries); Ruth Claxton, Gavin Wade (Eastside Projects, Birmingham); Louise Hutchinson, Holly Grange (S1 Artspace, Sheffield); Laura Harford, Nicola Wright (Studio Voltaire, London); Helen Legg (Spike Island); Milly Thompson (artist mentor), George Vasey (Curator mentor); and my Syllabus II 'cohort': Mira Calix, Faye Claridge, Mike Harvey, E.
