Reflection, research, development – Holly Rowan Hesson

All invited to the RE-VIEW exhibition where I’ll be showing new work with 25 other artists responding to the RE-VIEW residency process. The preview is the evening of Friday 25 October at the new Hull Artist Research Initiative space.

More info and invite flyer.

Excited to have been selected as one of the artist cohort for the UNBOUND Dynamic Artists for Public Spaces Development Programme taking place over the next six months.

The programme is funded by Wakefield Council, Cultural Development Fund and the West Yorkshire Combined Authority, and is being delivered by a partnership of Beam and Yorkshire & Humber Visual Arts Network (YVAN).

Happy to have been commissioned to take part in the excellent Locus Lancaster: Space, Place and Experience symposium. My work Compact responds to my experience of the architecture of the Lancaster University campus.

Working on ideas for the Leeds Creative Labs Smeaton300 project where I’m one of the artists paired with a researcher from University of Leeds Civil Engineering to explore creative ways of thinking together. Love the colour in the civil engineering lab.

My A-n Artist Bursary is centred around sculpture research and development using Yorkshire Sculpture International as a focus to the activity. A few highlights from the preview below, with multiple R&D visits planned over August and September including attending the symposium.
