Delhi and Dresden - Artist International Development Fund

Between March and May 2016 I visited Dresden and Delhi under the 'Artist International Development Fund'. This trip has been an amazing opportunity to push my practice into the first steps of international working. With thanks to the British Council and Arts Council of England for making it happen and supporting me. The aims of my project were to raise to an international level two previous projects. To realise Part 2 of ‘Bombed- A Moonlight Sonata’, in Dresden. Part 1 was an installation and performance at Herbert Gallery, Coventry (2011), that reflected the WW2 blitz. ‘Part 2’ would be from Dresden’s viewpoint, counter-bombed by Britain. In Delhi I presented foot-drawing workshops following an invitation from the Principal of Shiv Nadar School in Gurgaon, New Delhi - a series of nine exhausting, challenging, and most rewarding workshops with enthusiastic pupils. I also made contact with galleries in Delhi for future exhibition.
