2022 Resident Artists

• Jony Easterby and Pippa Taylor

• Faith Limbrick

  

  Faith’s practice spans performance, moving image, paper, sound, gardening, writing and sculpture. She uses them to investigate the functions of the imagination and its relationship to the non-human and narratives. She is developing a visual language that realises its subject matter as vibrant objects and aims to combine thoughts, experiences and objects to configure an encounter with a dream-like world. She wants to explore the power and mystery within the subjects of her work, which goes beyond their corporality, to their actions upon us: how they infiltrate, imprint and form our imaginations and cause us to think and feel, often unconsciously, particular thoughts and ideas.
