I was delighted to be awarded the Dreamtime Fellowship for 2023-24 at Spike Island, in Bristol. The Fellowship is generously sponsored by the artist, Luke Jerram. It involved a year's residency in a shared studio with four other Graduate Fellows, mentoring sessions with Luke, membership of the Spike Associates' programme and access to the Spike facilities. I was also given £5000.
At the end of my Fellowship, in October 2024, all the Fellows were invited to talk about their residencies. Sadly, I was unable to be there for The Night of the Fellows, as I had a commission to facilitate Glowing and Growing in Lancashire. Instead, I recorded this presentation which was played in my absence. The video is below, but if you'd prefer to read the presentation, it's on Academia here.
Many thanks to Luke Jerram, to the Spike Island community and to my fellow Fellows for their support and solidarity.
