We are excited to share our artists in residence for our 'Circling the Square – Visions of an Unmade City’ residency: Katy Hawkins and Ryan Heath.
Katy and Ryan will be creating work that proposed how the square in front of our gallery could be radically unmade and remade as a vision of what public space could mean in a post-European age of social distancing.
More details soon.
We have selected the first two artists for our Cabin Fever residency: Nicki Dennett and Dan Webber. Nicki is a printmaker who likes to mix images and text together to create a story across a series of prints. Dan is an award-winning LGBTQ+ poet, producer, events co-ordinator and promoter.
Nicki and Dan will be taking part in a social media takeover in the lead up to their residency – follow our social media for updates.
