I see curating as a natural extension of my practice and feel deeply privileged to work with artists in this way  . Many of the projects I produce span both digital and physical platforms, making multimedia events which often include social media interactions, symposiums, discussion, and interactive installations. 

2021 TALKING WITH ELECTRICITY

This event was planned to coincide with International Women's Day and was a multi media event creating the space for womens' creative voice to be heard. Welcoming all who identify as women, the programme partnered with Yellowfields, a critical writing project produced by Georgia Hall during the restricted circumstances of the pandemic. Films were interspersed with readings of the pieces written by artists during the Yellowfields project, but rather than each artist presenting their own work, the artists read each others with the writer present. The film Tin Can Telephone was commissioned for the project and the audience was invited to contribute to an ongoing collection of footage on Instagram @containedsound with Katherine Smith and Susan Merrick, makers of the film, which was built around the project. 

The event also featured the project 'Conversations with Aldershot', created by Sudan Merrick, and work was included from the following artists;

2020 Saturated Space

 

CAS associate artists show at the National Trust Sandham Memorial Chapel in Burghclere, Hampshire. In response to the historic space created specifically for Stanley Spencer's work on his return from WW1, the CAS artists associate group created work in response to this rich and layered context. In addition to multimedia works which flowed through the early twentieth century domestic space, including the main room, kitchen and bathroom which is part of the overall complex, an evening event was held which included a performance by Kimvi in the smaller domestic space, and a further performance bringing Tony Spencer's multi sensual sculpture from his touring exhibition, Nothing is Immediate, into the chapel space itself which is decorated floor to ceiling with Stanley Spencer's autobiographical work.
