Connecting Threads Residency, July–October 2026
I’m excited to have be selected as one of the artists-in-residence with Connecting Threads in 2026, along with Savinder Bual. The residencies take place across 8 weeks between July–October and are fully supported opportunities for creative practitioners with socially and environmentally engaged practices to spend time along the River Tweed and respond to its unique ecologies and culture.
