Residency : Transmission
A transatlantic project exploring innovative modes of Exhibition.
UAL x OCADU x CGLAS are delighted to introduce Transmission, an ambitious project that aims to explore innovative modes of exhibition that will derive from a virtual, trans-Atlantic residency across the three institutions.
Selected Artists in Residence will take part in a collaboration driven by the exchange of ideas and the sharing of creative research. The intent is to realize an exciting collective exhibition opportunity that overcomes the constraints of distance and budget – resulting in innovative models for display. Provoking debate throughout the residency, invited guests will bring global contexts, questions, and inspiration.

Residency : Portmeirion Village & Plas Brondanw
The first-ever collaboration between The Susan Williams-Ellis Foundation, Portmeirion Village and Rose Fulbright.
Named by British Vogue as The Girl Born to Design, Rose has a deep and profound connection to the Welsh village through the architect of Portmeirion, her great-grandfather, Sir Clough Williams-Ellis.
Rose has an artist mother and an anthropologist father, and grew up surrounded by the ceramics industry of the Potteries where her grandmother Susan started Portmeirion Pottery, as well as the natural beauty of Portmeirion Village and North Wales, which gave her a deep connection with form, colour and pattern.
On her one-week residency, Rose chose selected pieces of antique furniture no longer needed in the Village’s cottages and hotels to use as a canvas for her associations and feelings of Portmeirion.
Rhododendrons from the woods, ribbons and trees over the Estuary all feature in her work. The palette comprises colours chosen from various Annie Sloan’s highly pigmented collection of Chalk Paints. All materials were kindly provided by Annie Sloan.
Pieces are on display in a special exhibition at The Dome in Portmeirion until October 2024.

Residency : Tresco Island
Rose joins Cornwall’s most established artists in completing the artist residency on Tresco Island, Isles of Scilly.
Acceptance onto the residency includes representation with Gallery Tresco, as well as a one-week stay on Tresco to make preparatory sketches and observations for a body of work made exclusively for the Gallery.
This residency is particularly apt, as nature, and the coast in particular, has inspired Rose’s work for many years.
