Concluded the A-n Professional Development Bursary funded curatorial critiques with a great visit to meet Louise Hutchinson at S1 Artspace in Sheffield this week.
So much to take away and process from all the meetings over the last six months including the potential to make links outside of the UK, ideas on finding opportunities to keep working at scale and the need for an imminent total rewrite of the artist statement to match my developments in thinking around the crux of my work.
After a summer of illuminating more informal discussions with thanks to an array of curators and artists, I have the final A-n Professional Development Bursary funded curatorial critique sessions booked and am looking forward to adding to the diverse feedback received to date.
I’m also having a total website overhaul to reflect some of the discussion to date.
My A-n professional development bursary is currently funding a series of curatorial critique sessions focusing on the work made for my two solo shows of the first part of this year with invited curators across the country.
So far I’ve had fantastically inspiring meetings with Bryony Bond from The Tetley in Leeds, Anneka French, independent curator based in Birmingham, Paulette Terry Brien at International 3 in Manchester, Adam Smythe at The Bluecoat in Liverpool and Fiona Corridan and Kate Jesson from Manchester Art Gallery.
