Jane Phillips Award Student ProfileMission Offsite @ National Waterfront Musuem
03 July - 26 July 2015
The Jane Phillips Award was set up in 2011 as a memorial to Jane Phillips (1957 – 2011)Mission Gallery’s first director. The Award is a legacy to Jane’s passion for mentoring and nurturing talent, consistently supporting young, emerging artists across the Visual and Applied Arts in Wales and beyond.
The Jane Phillips Award has been successful and is evolving, responding to the artistic community and forming new partnerships. We wish to develop and broaden the scope of the award by introducing two new exciting prizes, plus a year long programme of Residencies, including an international partnership, which will exist alongside the main award.
As part of this Award, we will support, on an annual basis, selected Art and Design graduates of UWTSD, Swansea and Carmarthen with a Student Prize. This will be in the form of an exhibition at our offsite space within the National Waterfront Museum, plus a separate Graduate Residency at the new Elysium Studios on High Street in Swansea. These will exist alongside and complement, the main Jane Phillips Exhibition Award.
Following a tour of degree shows we are pleased to announce the selected artists invited to showcase work within the Student Profile are:
Stine Aas Nundal
Rhiannon Ames
Thomas Deacon
Ciara Long
Catrin Jones
Rose Seymour
Caryl Mair Davies
