Meet our Thursday #artisttakeover Residency team!
Mentor Artist, @rosiegallowaysmith, is an installation artist and painter who blends various media to explore relationships, materials, identity, and complex emotions.
Her trainee artist on this project is @nanettemadan, a community-based visual artist with an ecology background who has worked across the region.
Nanette hopes this project will support her to develop skills in inclusive practice and creative leadership.
Both artists have a wealth of experience in creating captivating installation work that leaves a lasting impression, making them a perfect fit for the skillset of our Studio Focus group over the next 7 weeks!

Meet our Tuesday #ArtistTakeover Residency team!
Mentor Artist, @jeremy_bradfield is a freelance composer, creating music for a variety of settings. He specialises in collaborative projects with multidisciplinary artists and community groups, and we’re excited for the programme he’s going to bring to our young person’s group, Studio Lift-Off, on Tuesdays.
His trainee, Catherine Quilter, a multidisciplinary artist and long-time member of the Prism studio, is keen to develop her facilitation skills by supporting individuals’ progress in the studio and leading creative exercises.
This duo will no doubt bring a vibrant, creative and musical energy to Studio Lift-Off, and we can’t wait to see the final outcomes

Check out this donated Drawing Board! 😍
Local artist Trudi donated this fabulous architect's drawing board to us this week along with a stool and high-quality art books - we couldn't be more thrilled! The Prism team can't wait to see what our artists create now that we can enjoy a large, vertical drawing surface like this.
Additionally - we need to give a huge thank you to Mr Move It (AKA Gary Clulow) who transported this over to our studio with a generous discounted rate to support the charity. We are very grateful and would like to give him a shoutout - get in touch with Gary if you need a reliable mover in the local area! (07572 891377) 🚚🎉
