This summer, the Art Yard Studio will host a collaborative artist residency featuring painter Georgi Morrison as the Artist in Residence. Georgi will draw inspiration from a rotating display of sculptural works created by sculptors Claire Jackson, Johannes Nielsen, and Natanya Barrett.
Throughout the three-month program, Georgi will create a new body of work that responds to each sculptor’s practice. Each month, a different sculptural installation will be introduced to the studio, allowing Georgi to engage in a dynamic dialogue between mediums, translating forms into fluid expressions and structures into immersive atmospheres.
In addition to the studio activities, Gareth Griffiths will curate an impressive Sculpture Garden, transforming the hotel’s terrace and courtyard into a beautiful open-air exhibition space.
Join us for workshops, open studios, and community events that highlight the artistic process and foster meaningful connections. Follow @contemporary_collective or @banksidehotel for updates throughout the residency.
