Today sees the launch of a new a-n bursary scheme that aims to support artists as they explore future collaborations.
This week’s selection includes figurative painting in Edinburgh, site-specific sonicness in Sheffield and a bit of English Magic in London.
It seems that in Taiwan it is most certainly good to be born in the 80’s. From my trip so far there has been artists ‘a plenty’ to get excited about, nearly all born in the generation most brits try […]

Part 3… I headed straight for the queue through to departures. It was quite busy and the line snaked back and forth on itself five or six times. It was on my second snake that I spotted Candice joining the […]
