Being on the edge of Nottingham HMS can feel a bit isolated from the other studios. I try to make the effort to see events etc in order to feel connected. Yesterday, 3 of us from HMS visited Primary, formally a school but converted into a labyrinth of studios, exhibition and project spaces. The studios are to die for! It was great to catch up with artists and see some interesting work.
Yesterday, Chris Wright and myself were notified that we were selected for Summer Lodge at NTU. We were 2 of 5 artists from Nottingham studios to be selected. Nottingham Trent Fine Art staff team have selected 5 artists from local studio groups to participate in a two week artists residency hosted in the NTU studios, Summer Lodge.
The overall participants making up this year are a total of 31 artists from NTU staff, HPL’s & PhD students, Sheffield Hallam University fine art staff
