Masters in Conversation: Artist Cathy Wade

Artsfest Artsfest 2021 / Masters in Conversation: Artist Cathy Wade

Each of our talks is conducted by a current MA student from the University of Wolverhampton and delves into important questions around art practices and the nature of creativity in the 21st Century.

In this online talk we are delighted to welcome artist Cathy Wade.

Cathy Wade is an artist who works through collaboration, writing and research. She has exhibited extensively in both the UK and internationally working with galleries and projects including Werk, Vertigo Gallery, Vivid, Rope Press, Toomey Tourell Gallery, Ikon, Newlyn Art Gallery, Capsule, Clarke Gallery & A3 Project Space.

"My work is concerned with the ways in which art can be distributed and hosted, the mobility of practice, and the collaborative partnerships within which art can be manifested. My work is performative, bendable, durational it seeks to understand the experience of the present and is undertaken with others. My practice is invested in the document, statements, conversations and their echoes. It thinks through, it is repartition, durcharbeitung, it asks to know more".

This event was recorded on 5th July 2021.
